Tourouzelle, a village in the Minervois<\/span><\/h1>

Tourouzelle is a small village in the Aude<\/a> department, between the Minervois and the Corbi\u00e8res, near L\u00e9zignan-Corbi\u00e8res. It has just under 500 inhabitants. Its ochre houses, the remains of its ramparts and the surrounding garrigue make it a quiet stop, a few kilometres from the Canal du Midi<\/a>.<\/p>

A little history<\/h2>

Traces of early settlement have been found near a Roman road, at a place called the Camp des Sarrazins. In the Middle Ages, the villagers gathered behind walls to protect themselves from armed bands. In 1355, the Black Prince\u2019s troops burned the village. A battle was fought here again in 1590, during the Wars of Religion. In the late 19th century, the vineyards drew many workers: the village had more than 1,100 inhabitants in 1881.<\/p>
