A discreet fountain on the side of the road next to a small park.
The fountain, very low, is right next to the stop sign

Devil's Bridge

Highlight • River

This magnificent bridge allows you to admire: the entrance to the Hérault gorges; the Devil's Bridge, a medieval structure with two main arches (plus two secondary ones) which spans the Hérault at the level of the Gouffre Noir since the 11th century; the Saint-Jean-de-Fos bridge, which does not have the aura of the Devil's Bridge but which is still found in many photos and remains a very pretty bridge with a single arch; and an aqueduct in the background.

Peyrou Gate

Highlight • Historical Site

Magnificent triumphal arch - the once magnificent city gate was somewhat pimped up in the 18th century and converted into a memorial to Louis XIV.

Triumphal Arch

Highlight • Monument

The "Arc de Triomphe", also called "Porte de Peyrou" forms the entrance to the park "Promenade du Peyrou". The triumphal arch was originally a gate on the outskirts of the city and behind it was a drawbridge with which one could cross the city moat. The drawbridge has now been replaced by a 28-meter wide road bridge and the tram runs in the former city moat.
