Uzès - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (633 words)
	Uzès is a picturesque town and commune in the Gard département, Languedoc, France, located about 15 miles north-northeast of Nîmes.
	Here, at the source of the Eure began the 1st century CE Roman aqueduct that brought water 50 km to Nimes, of which the famous stretch is the Pont du Gard, which carries the aqueduct on splendid arches across the river Gardon.
	Like many cloth-manufacturing centers (Uzès was known for its serges), the city and the surrounding countryside were strongly Protestant during the Wars of Religion in the 16th century, which wreaked havoc in Languedoc.
