BEDARIEUA

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 613 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BEC-BER
BEDARIEUA , a town of southern France, in the department of Herault, on the Orb, 27 M. N.N.W. of Beziers by rail. Pap. (1906) 5594 The town has a 16th-
century
 
church
 , a board of
trade
  arbitration, a chamber of arts and manufactures, a communal college and a school of drawing. Bedarieux was at one time a notable manufacturing centre. Its
cloth
 -weaving industry, carried on under a
special
  royal privilege from the end of the 17th
century
  to the Revolution, employed in 1789 as many as 5000 workmen, while some thousand more were occupied in wool and
cotton
  spinning, &c. In spite of the introduction of modern machinery from England, the
industries
  of the place declined, mainly owing to the loss of the
trade
  with the Levant; but of
late
  years they have somewhat revived, owing partly to the opening up of coal mines in the neighbourhood. Besides
cloth
  factories and wool-spinning mills, there are now numerous tanneries and leather-dressing works. There is some trade in timber, wool and agricultural produce.
