In the heart of the gorges of Hérault, this medieval village, a large national site, is classified among the most beautiful villages in France. Housed in a small walkway lined with rocky walls, he developed around his abbey founded in 804 by Saint Guilhem. The abbey and its cloister are outstanding examples of the first Languedoc Romanesque art, classified as a World heritage by UNESCO on the roads of Santiago de Compostela. Within the building, the th organs are also classified as historic monuments. Along the streets of this picturesque village, the visitor discovers splendid Romanesque houses. The remains of a castle in the th century are still in the town. Following the Verdus which crosses the village, the visitor reaches the circuses of the Infernet or the End of the world. Nearby, he discovers the gorges of Hérault, which present a tormented, chaotic and wild landscape. The basement is rich in caves, dargilan, springs and outbreaks. The cave of Clamouse with its profusion of rare concretions is a beautiful witness of this world of night.
Une visite très intéressante, une église magnifique, de belles maisons occupées par des artisans, ce n'est pas pour rien qu'il fait partie des plus beaux villages de France.
