Aniane is a historic village at the foot of the Cévennes mountains, where vineyards of the Terrasses du Larzac appellation climb limestone slopes. The village developed around a medieval abbey, and its architectural heritage includes Romanesque churches and stone houses lining narrow streets. Local wine estates produce structured red wines from high-altitude vineyards, with many cellars offering tastings. The nearby Pont du Diable, a medieval bridge over the Hérault River, attracts swimmers in summer, while hiking trails lead into the mountains from the village edge.
