Sauveterre (French pronunciation: [sovtɛʁ]; Occitan: Sauvatèrra) is a commune in the Gard department in southern France.

The village is located between the towns of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon in the south and Roquemaure in the north, and bounded by the Rhône River in the east, and the commune of Pujaut in the west.

The village is primarily a farming community, with a dozen or so shops providing essential local foodstuffs and services, including bakeries, a hairdresser, a grocery, a video rental, two bar-restaurants, a car repair garage, a post office, the town hall and community centre, and a small modern housing development.

To the east of the road the farmland land is the flat former flood plain of the Rhone River, and is planted mainly with apples, melons, pumpkins, asparagus, and market garden produce from organic agriculture.

Sauveterre is part of the canton of Roquemaure that also includes the communes of Laudun, Lirac, Montfaucon, Saint-Geniès-de-Comolas, Saint-Laurent-des-Arbres, Saint-Victor-la-Coste and Tavel.
