Combaillaux, a stone's throw from Montpellier, has one of the two olive-pressing establishments around the city.
The fruits of the 10,000 trees of one of the largest olive groves in the Hérault are pressed to make oils and tapenades, among other things.
After visiting the mill, visit the small centre built in "circulade". It is around a fortified building erected in the 12th century that the village developed, and if the castle has disappeared, the layout of the houses keeps the memory of it since they are distributed along narrow lanes drawn in circle on the puech.
The small ensemble, which betrays its medieval origin through various architectural elements, distils an intimate atmosphere. The church was only built in the 19th century, outside the walls, Combaillaux having been for a long time only a hamlet of the parish of Saint-Julien and Saint-Basilisse (of Grabels), in the barony of Caravètes.
