The highlights of the Languedoc destination
Historical monuments, museums and cultural spaces, caves and natural sites, works of art… For more than 14 years now, the Sites d’exception en Languedoc have brought together the unmissable sites of the territory with the common desire to carry the colors of this magnificent southern province of France.
In 2022, the SEL network is made up of 30 exceptional natural, cultural and heritage sites and 10 partner service providers (exceptional wine and olive-growing estates, crafts, activity providers, etc.). Together, they carry out collective projects for development, disability accessibility, and promote a tourist, heritage, cultural, interdepartmental offer, which contributes to the influence of the territory. The SEL association has been supported since its creation by the Hérault department.
