At a mere 20-minute drive from Béziers lies a surprising historic site. The Oppidum d’Ensérune used to be a fortified city, founded around 575 BC by the Celts. From a distance, it might look like just another bump in the landscape. But take a closer look, and you will discover the fascinating history of this typical Iron Age settlement. The view from the top of the hill is a bonus, as it gives you a panorama over the remarkable sun-shaped dry pond (‘étang’) of Montady.
