The château de Perdiguier stands at Maraussan, near Béziers, built on a core dating from the late 13th century and substantially reworked during the 17th and 18th centuries. Its quadrangular layout, six round towers and varied steep roofs reflect these successive building phases. The estate today remains a family run vineyard, where the historic structure coexists with the surrounding vines.
