Mauguio

Mauguio is best known in Occitanie for the Étang de l’Or, a broad coastal lagoon on the Mediterranean plain. The town lies east of Montpellier, where low-lying farmland, wetlands and reedbeds mark the transition between inland Languedoc and the coast. In the Middle Ages, it was the seat of the Counts of Melgueil, giving Mauguio an enduring place in the region’s history. Today, the town combines a lived-in centre with access to the lagoon and the nearby seaside district of Carnon.
