The Causses and the Cévennes, Mediterranean agro-pastoral Cultural Landscape
World Heritage
France
🎧 Listen to Introduction
Located in the south of central France, this 302,319-hectare land is a mountainous landscape interspersed with deep valleys that represent the relationship between agro-pastoral systems and their biophysical environment, especially accessed by paths or less travelled roads. The villages of the Causses and the solid stone farmhouses on deep terraces reflect the organization of a large monastery from the 11th century. The Lozère Mountains within the land are one of the last places where summer migratory grazing is still carried out in the traditional way (using paths).
