Classified as a historic monument since 1862, this bridge offers a dive into the past and testifies to the know-how of medieval builders. Despite the centuries that have passed and the sometimes violent floods of the Hérault, it retains a robust elegance, the result of ancient engineering and solid construction. The exact origin of the structure has long fueled debates among historians. While it was sometimes attributed to the Roman era, the most recent research now confirms its medieval dating.

Old wheat mill converted into a hydroelectric power station. (1988). The 11th-century "Bled" mill is in a perfect state of preservation. It supplied the local population with wheat and barley flour. The motive force of the water drove a heavy wheel that crushed the millers' grain. This medieval mill has ceased its activity but bears witness to the economic activity of this small commune in Bas-Languedoc.
