Trésors patrimoniaux

Heritage treasures

Les Moulins Mills The landscape of the Avant-Monts is shaped as much by the vineyards as by the many mills that dot the area. So many testimonies to the past, all telling a common story, that of the people who lived before us. La Font de l'Oli La Font de l'Oli à Gabian Discover an ancient and curious system that bears witness to the exploitation of a multi-purpose commodity: petroleum oil. Les pierres sèches Dry stone Discover an ancestral technique, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, that enables stone walls and cottages to be built without the use of binders. Châteaux, castrum et remparts Castles, castrum and ramparts Rich in history and heritage, the Avant-Monts invites you to step back in time and discover the castles, castrums and ramparts that bear witness to the history of our villages. Le patrimoine religieux Eglise, chapelle et ermitage, le territoire est riche de patrimoine religieux remarquable. Un havre de paix au frais pour traverser le temps lors de vos visites de villages. Les villages circulaires Typique du sud de la France, certains villages des Avant-Monts ont une disposition architecturale originale. Les rues sont organisés en forme de cercles autour d'un château ou d'une église placé en son centre Les pigeonniers de Murviel Très nombreux à Murviel, les pigeonniers constituent une véritable originalité. Certains sont très particuliers : ce sont des pigeonniers-tours, parfois crénelés. La Tour romane de Puissalicon Du haut de ses 26m de hauteur, ce magnifique clocher de style lombard fut édifié au XIe siècle. C’était la tour attenante à une église aujourd’hui disparue : Saint Etienne de Pézan. C’est aujourd’hui un obélisque singulier, dans le cimetière du village.
