Gravel riding

The current chapel dates from 1868, but its history is much older. It was built on the site of a hermitage whose existence is attested as early as the 9th century, on the old route connecting Bédarieux to Lodève through Escandorgue. Dedicated to Saint Amans, evangelizer of Lodève and Rodez according to tradition, it stands at an altitude of 679 meters. Its architecture in basalt, limestone, and slate blends perfectly with the landscape.

Hiking

Saint Amans brought the gospel to Lodève and Rodez. In his honor, this chapel and the statue of St. Amans were ceremoniously inaugurated on Whit Monday, June 6, 1870. It is located at an altitude of 679 m in a secluded location and in clear weather you have a wonderful view of the plain.
