Located at the confluence of the Rhone and the Gardon's history is strongly marked by the presence of water.

The man from the Neolithic period took place in the hills overlooking the River. In the 15th century the manor was owned by Diane de Poitiers. And prosperity of its port in the 17th century earned him the construction of many mansions. The turning lanes and celebrities abound.

Is the mansion where Francis founded the first order Posquières Bacchic in 1703 "The Order of the drink and the Strict Observance" taken today by the Costières du Gard.
