About La Mosson
What are the main landmarks in La Mosson?
Pitches, pools and boulodromes dominate. The Château de la Mosson is the historic building on the list, while the rest of it runs through the centre nautique Neptune, the tennis de la Paillade, the gymnase Arthur Rimbaud and the skate park Blayac. Two churches appear as well: Saint Thomas church (Montpellier) and the Église Saint-Marc-l'Évangéliste de Juvignac.
Golf Montpellier Fontcaude closes the set.
What is the history of La Mosson?
Buildings, not years, open La Mosson's register. The Château de la Mosson is the only château among them, and the rest of the register records the civic and sporting building of Montpellier and Juvignac, from gymnases and boulodromes to football pitches and two churches. Léo Lagrange, René Bessière, Arthur Rimbaud and Louis Combette are the names those halls and grounds carry.
Nothing earlier survives in the file, so the written past of La Mosson begins with the château and continues through the Église Saint-Marc-l'Évangéliste de Juvignac and Saint Thomas church (Montpellier).
