Vauvert

Vauvert is an administrative center in the Gard department, located on flat land in the southwestern part of the region. The town sits at around 30 meters elevation and features Mediterranean vegetation typical of this lowland area.

During the Middle Ages, the settlement was called Posquières and hosted a large Jewish community that shaped the region's religious character. This medieval period established the foundations of what would become the modern town.

The town maintains its architectural heritage through buildings such as the Montcalm Chapel, classified in 2000, and the Protestant temple, registered in 2012.

A local shuttle service called Vauvéo connects different areas of the town and sometimes runs with reduced morning service during maintenance periods. Check in advance if you plan to travel early in the day.

The town is part of the Petite Camargue community and sits in an area with special natural features that support wine production in a Mediterranean climate. This location brings together flat terrain with local agricultural traditions.
