Culture and History

The very well-preserved slipway at the port of Flaujagues was built in the first half of the 19th century and features a main quay as well as two sloping ramps for launching watercraft.

The former post office of Flaujagues now houses the municipal library. It is freely and free of charge accessible to everyone.

Today's Saint Martin Church stands near an older church that was destroyed by the Huguenots during the Wars of Religion. Saint Martin Church itself was built at the beginning of the 17th century.

Wine and Cultivation

The wine-growing area of Flaujagues mainly consists of small and medium-sized, family-run estates.

Local agriculturally oriented establishments include Les Jardins de la Prêle, a permaculture micro-farm using organic cultivation methods.
