An Approximately 325 M² Former Presbytery Awaiting Renovation, With An Inner Courtyard, In The

An approximately 325-m² former presbytery awaiting renovation, with an inner courtyard, in the centre of Béziers, on an esplanade. The presbytery is at the very tip of the acropolis in Béziers, to the south of the old town, outside its walls, several hundred metres from the medieval ramparts. Remains of the Roman arenas can be seen very close by.

The residence is opposite a large esplanade on which plane trees provide shade, in a dominant position with uninterrupted views of the lower parts of the city, the Orb Valley and the Pyrenees on the horizon.

The façade of this three-storey building, standing next to the entrance to the church, is rendered and has four low-arched openings containing a door as well as three windows on the ground floor, all made of wood, five windows on the first floor and the same number on the second floor, on which they are smaller and can be found in rectangular openings. The panelled, painted, wooden door with a fanlight window is surrounded by a moulded door frame and is topped by an entablature with a central key stone, all of which are ribbed or sculpted. It can be reached by three stone steps and has a painted metal guard-rail on either side. All the windows on the top two storeys are fitted with white-painted wooden shutters, while those on the ground floor are protected by metal railings. Light streams into the edifice’s rooms thanks to its west-facing aspect and many windows. Lastly, as is customary in the region, the roof is made of half-round tiles, which is underlined by a denticulated cornice, echoed in more sober fashion by two belt courses on the lower levels.
