Caunes Minervois


At the foot of Black Mountain, Caunes-Minervois was built around a real jewel of Romanesque architecture in Languedoc: Benedictine abbey (founded 780). North-east of the village you will find the little church of Notre-Dame du Cros. Pink marble quarries have built the international reputation of Caunes.
