The Domaine de Grammont is an entertainment and sports complex located in Grammont on the outskirts of Montpellier. Originally developed by the Grandmontains who established the Chapter of Maguelone in 1174, the 90 hectare complex that once had vineyards now belongs to the City. The castle, converted into an annex town hall, hosts weddings in a room dating from the 12th century. The Chapelle Sainte-Philothée was founded in 1180, and rebuilt in 1895-'97 by Pierre Arribat. Decorated with sculptures by Auguste Baussan and stained glass by Louis-Charles-Marie Champigneulle, the beautiful chapel is presently used by the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of France, part of the Orthodox Church of Constantinople. The chateau also houses the National Conservatory of Canna, the emblematic flower of Montpellier.
The Sud Zenith, Théâtre des Treize Vents, and Espace Grammont host concerts and live performances.
The headquarters of the football club Montpellier Hérault Sport Club are in the Domaine. The grounds also have facilities for tennis, basketball, and riding.
