Pouzolles is a languedoc village of 1001 inhabitants located at the heart of the vineyards, 30 km of the Mediterranean beaches, near Pézenas, the city of Molière's rich inheritance, near Béziers known for its feria, and near Montpellier (70 km), the regional capital.

Here one finds many testimonies of the Roman occupation. As of the eleventh century, the name of Pouzolles is mentioned in a number of charters and would mean "oil well", probably because of the existence of sources of oil in the vicinity.

The village is dominated by the chateau and its two turrets and by the church, built at the site of the ramparts. One of the vestiges, the gate Saint Martin, formerly defended by a harrow, is still visible.
