Presentation
Several sites are listed Historic Monuments including SaintHippolyte chapel, Sainte-Cécile church, and the early Christian church. In addition to the ramparts of the old castle, you can admire many Renaissance façades in the old town, as well as winegrowers’ houses, which are typical of Languedoc architecture. But the jewel of the village is the Villa “des Prés-bas”, a former GalloRoman wine-growing estate.
You’ll discover a genuine but small palace, with floors covered in polychrome mosaics from the 2nd and 5th centuries. Since 2000, this archaeological treasure has become a museum with 15, 000 visitors/ year.
Every year in July, the Journées Romaines des Augustales will take you on a journey back to ancient times. But from spring onwards, the great Languedoc fair of Loupian gives pride of place to local produce, local crafts and centuryold traditions such totem animals and parades in period costumes.
