More about Assignan Assignan is an ancient village first mentioned in 936. Today there are approx. 140 inhabitants and the village has a post office and a variety of daily visiting shops. There is also a communal tennis court which can be used for a small fee. Saint-Chinian, which is only a short drive away, provides all the shops and restaurants.

The church in Assignan

Just a short walk from l'Arramon you can find a number of wineries, all of which produce excellent wine (some organic and even biodynamic!), which can be tasted and bought locally. The endless vineyards give rhythm and colour to the undulating hills and valleys throughout the year, from pale green in the spring to the russet and gold colours of the autumn.
