Mayby It´s the long history of the place which provides Chateau de Grezan with its own particular air of wonder and mystery. The grounds were once home to Roman merchants,pilgrims on route to Compostelle and later,one of three Commanderies the Knights Templar maintained in this part of France, before it became property of Hospitaliers of St. Jean of Jerusalem.

This is such a beautiful Church steeped in history. Although it is situated at the top of a hill, it is fairly easy to access from the town. Admission is free (there is a donation box) and it is well looked after. There is a lovely courtyard and the views from the Cathedral grounds are magnificent. It is certainly worth paying a visit if you are in Béziers.

On the outskirts of Montpellier, the Chateau forms a cohesive whole with its French formal park and the 60 hectares of vines that surround it. All the architectural details of this 18th-century “Folly” (Monuments Historiques) point to the domain’s wine-growing role and its dedication to women and love, often reflected in the labels on each cuvee, which show the wines’ historical ties.

This modernist take on Frence architecture is a very interesting way to spend and hour or two. Simply walk on down all the way to the river, you will be surprised at the ambiance, the trees are wonderful.

Valmagne abbey is a cistercian abbey. Since 1947, it's classified as a historical monument. In 1139, Raymond Trencavel, Viscount of Beziers founded Valmagne Abbey situated near Villeyrac, a few miles away from the port of Meze on the "Bassin de Thau". From the 12th through to the middle of the 14th Century, Valmagne was one of the richest abbeys in the south of France. You can discover the "cathedrale des vignes"(gothic church), the "conservatoire des cepages", the Chapter House, the Fountain, ... And then you can stroll in the garden, taste organic wine or eat at the "auberge de valmagne".
The abbey is a must see place. It is full of history and definitely worth visiting. If you get to do the commented visit, you will enjoy it that much more. It is easy to access and there is a car park just outside of the abbey. The entrance fee is very reasonable.
