At the heart of an intense agricultural activity, Saint-André de Valborgne was a large rural parish with a very scattered population. The commune went through the wars of religion, its population having embraced the party of the Reformation. Occupied by the royal troops, it was a garrison village where battles took place between the Camisards of Castanet and their persecutors. It is especially during the golden age of the silkworm that the landscape was transformed: plantation of mulberry trees, elevation of the houses to shelter the magnaneries and to raise the silkworms. In the village, a group of bourgeois facades was built on both sides of the Gardon quays.
