Reserve Africaine de Sigean

Villeneuvette is a commune in the Hérault department in the Occitanie region in southern France. It lies close to the town of Clermont l'Hérault. Villeneuvette is a small village made up of a group of buildings initially erected in the 17th century to create a royal clothmaking factory and provide accommodation for its workers. Apart from a hotel and restaurant, the buildings are now restricted to residential use, many for holiday purposes.

Places to see in ( Beziers - France )

On a rocky crag beside the River Orb, Béziers is an understated city a few kilometres in from the Mediterranean and its long sandy beaches. These old stone streets are rarely swamped with tourists, but for five days in mid-August the Féria de Béziers brings a program of bullfights, and aficionados pour into the city.

Sightseers should begin with the Orb, which is crossed by a quaintly irregular medieval bridge far below the cathedral. And conversely, the boundless views across the river plain from this church are a real spectacle. The Orb, Canal du Midi and the Haut Languedoc Regional Park all promise outdoor escapades, and winery tours will also be on the menu in the world’s largest wine region.

The town is located on a small bluff above the river Orb, about 10 km (6.2 mi) from the Mediterranean coast, and 75 km southwest of Montpellier. At Béziers, the Canal du Midi spans the river Orb as an aqueduct called the Pont-canal de l'Orb, claimed to be the first of its kind. Béziers is one of the oldest cities in France. Research published in March 2013 shows that Béziers dates from 575 BC, making it older than Agde (Greek Agathe Tyche, founded in 525 BC) and a bit younger than Marseille (Greek Massalia, founded in 600 BC).

The site has been occupied since Neolithic times, before the influx of Celts. Roman Betarra was on the road that linked Provence with Iberia. The Romans refounded the city as a new colonia for veterans in 36–35 BC and called it Colonia Julia Baeterrae Septimanorum. Stones from the Roman amphitheatre were used to construct the city wall during the 3rd century. White wine was exported to Rome. A dolia discovered in an excavation near Rome is marked I am a wine from Baeterrae and I am five years old; another simply white wine of Baeterrae. It was occupied by the Moors between 720 and 752.

East -- among the greenery at Manufacture
Near to the village of Villeneuvette is where you will now find the protected and verdant Manufacture. In the 18th century, this was a large textiles factory making uniforms and blankets for the French army. Today the area is protected and beautiful terrace-style homes with dazzling gardens have been created. It is, quite simply, a wonderful place!

Osten -- üppiges grün in la Manufacture
In der Nähe des Dorfs Villeneuvette liegt die ehemalige, heute denkmalgeschützte Textilfabrik La Manufacture, in der im 18. Jahrhundert Uniformen und Decken für die französische Armee genäht wurden. Heute stehen die pittoresken, reihenhausähnlichen Gebäude mit ihren prunkenden Gärten unter Denkmalschutz. Wirklich ein Ort zum Verlieben!

Öster -- i grönskan på Manufacture
Nära byn Villeneuvette ligger det idag skyddade och grönskande Manufacture. Från 1700-talet har här varit en stor textilfabrik som försedde den franska armen med uniformer och filtar. Idag är området skyddat och vackra radhusliknande bostäder med prunkande trädgårdar har skapats. Ett underbart ställe helt enkelt!
