Culture
An exhibition room at the Maison du Patrimoine displays part of these collections. The Notre Dame de l’Assomption church, dating from 1694, has three naves and is designed in the Gothic style; it includes a museum with liturgical objects.
The Maison du patrimoine et des archives was inaugurated above the library in 2013. The Moulin de Félines dates from 1780 and was restored in 2000. It can be visited at weekends.
Nature
The Croix Blanche can be reached via an easy one-hour round trip and overlooks the village from a remarkable viewpoint.
The botanical Sentier des Capitelles features around 40 plant species and forms a loop of less than one hour between the Moulin de Félines and the terraces of the Pech de Marassi. The Sentier Poétique et Botanique connects the Capitelles with the Moulin de Félines.

Every year, Félines-Minervois holds a Lavender Day featuring harvesting and distillation, along with musical and poetic entertainment. Hikes are organised several times a year in the Félines area; the traditional Easter omelette always takes place on Easter Monday.
