Montpellier is the main administrative and commercial center of the Languedoc-Roussillon region and Ero department. It is located in the south of France, only 10 km away from the Mediteran Sea. The climate typical of the Mediteran provides over 300 sunny days during the year.

Although it had a very good strategic position, Montpellier has never been part of the Roman Empire. The history of the city itself does not reach far into the past. The first known records date from the X century. It was founded by the local dynasty of the Counts of Toulouse under whose administration it was until the beginning of the XII century. The favorable position of the city and the openness of the local population towards foreigners attracted a great number of immigrants, which directly influenced the development of trade and economy. A higher percentage of the population was made up of Jews, Muslims and Qatari.

In the 1180., a medical faculty was established in the city, which in 1220. gained the status of the University. Since then, up to today, with over 60,000 new students each year, Montpellier is one of the best and most competitive educational centers in Europe. In the 16th century, one of their most famous students, Nostradamus, was enrolled at the Medical Faculty in Montpellier, which will later become known for its prophecies.

During the nineteenth century, Montpellier was going through a period of industrialization. In that period, production wines were developing, which has greatly contributed to the economic development of the city. Considering that there is no industrial plant in the radius of about 300 km around Monpelje, everything that is grown in this area is considered environmentally good and healthy.

Like many other cities, Montpellier combines the old with the new and represents a shimmering and interesting destination. The best time to visit this city is in the summer months when there are a few tourists in the city, although the proximity to the sea, mild climate, medieval monuments that stand side by side with the latest architecture streams as well as a very rich gastronomic offer, make this city a popular destination all year long.
