The surviving milestone column of Saint-Aunès has stood by the church since the 18th century and is a relic of the Via Domitia. The milestone by the church of Saint-Aunès is connected with this road; its inscription recalls the repair of the road in AD 30.
The present-day church of Saint-Aunès was built from stones taken from an older local church dating from the 10th century.
The surviving washhouse in Saint-Aunès recalls the former practice of washing laundry in the river: washing was done on a sloping stone or a simple board, in both cases without a roof.
The fountain opposite the church of Saint-Aunès is attributed to the Sieur de Barbeyrac. He also had a shell-shaped fountain and two wells built in the village, including the well in front of the presbytery.
