Alleys of the old town of Montpellier, France. Rue Saint-Paul at the back of the Sain Roch church. The origin of the name Montpellier is a great mystery and the subject of several disputes between experts. There are several versions: Mons Pessulanus, the bare mount; Mont Puellarum, the mount of the maidens; Mont Petrarium, the mount of stones; Mont Pistillarius, the mount of species. The most probable is Monte Pestelario, an appeal found in a municipal act in 985. Appearing around 980, the city of Montpellier becomes a meeting point and exchange between Occitan, Christian, Jewish and Muslim cultures, and their vocation University is confirmed immediately. It is thanks to the stately dynasty of the Guilhem that Monte Pestelario, that is, Montpellier, is born. In the 11th century, it is nothing more than a small provincial town with a castle and a church. In 1180 the Lord of Montpellier Guilhem VII grants whoever wants the right to practice and teach medicine.
