Tips

Fabrice Rigalleau

May 8, 2023

The charm of a small Occitan village leaning against the foothills of the Causse du Larzac, distinguished by the density of its buildings and its simple architecture. Deserted about twenty years ago, it owes its rebirth to foreign immigration (mainly English). The houses, built of local sandstone, rise on the right bank of the river. Some have retained evidence of Renaissance architecture (mullioned windows and transoms, ornate lintels, etc.).

Saint-Privat experienced significant economic development at the end of the 19th century, with the exploitation of its subsoil. Rich in sandstone, it allowed the manufacture of many grinding wheels for sharpening tools or polishing marble, which were transported to Lodève, then the ports of Sète or Montpellier to be exported to Mediterranean countries.
