The winter is mild despite the frosts that can sometimes occur. Summer is hot. In autumn, Mediterranean episodes occur with heavy rain showers. HistoryThe town of Clermont-l'Hérault has been occupied since Protohistory: during the Iron Age (6th century BC), Clermont constitutes one of the main Oppidum of the Mediterranean Celtic. Recent archaeological excavations have demonstrated its importance during antiquity (INRAP, 2000s). There was then a main agglomeration of five to six hectares and a peripheral inhabited area of 12 hectares. The remains of a thermal establishment have been uncovered. The town was several times taken and retaken in the religious wars of the 16th century. The city was formerly known as Clermont-Lodève. Nearby, the manufacture of sheets Villeneuvette was created, or rather relaunched in 1667 by Colbert to develop the cloth industry in France, taking advantage of the waters of the Dourbie.
