Lagrasse
Aude
An abbey in the heart of the Corbières
Set amidst the vineyards and rolling hills typical of the Corbières region, Lagrasse is crossed by the River Orbieu, spanned by a bridge linking the village and its 14th-century market halls to its abbey, an architectural gem from the medieval period. A village renowned for its Corbières wine, Lagrasse is also a village of craftsmanship, which the local artisans will be delighted to help you discover.

A Lagrasse Legend
Fairies feature prominently in the legends of the Corbières. In Lagrasse, by the streams or at the wash houses, the ‘fées-mitounes’ beat the washing on full moon nights. Woe betide the wayward traveller who might try to help them or succumb to their charms: they would be whisked away for good into the other world...!
