Anduze, Medieval commune in Gard, France.
Anduze is a commune in Gard, France, situated between hills with the Gardon River flowing through it. The town spreads across the terrain where the river has shaped the settlement naturally over time.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, Anduze became a Protestant stronghold in southern France. This period left a lasting mark on the town and its place in regional history.
The Pagoda Fountain displays eastern design through its colored tiles and oriental patterns, reflecting old trade connections. The town is known for its pottery tradition, which shapes the local crafts and identity today.
The location has a natural landscape with hills and riverside terrain, which shapes how you move through the town. Visitors should expect varied ground and wear sturdy shoes.
Pottery making here dates back to 1610, when local artisans began producing the distinctive Vase d'Anduze. These vessels were inspired by Medici designs and continue to be made by craftspeople in the town.
