Villeneuve-sur-Vère (French pronunciation: [vilnœv syʁ vɛʁ]; Occitan: Vilanòva de Vera) is a commune in the Tarn department in southern France.

In the beginning of the 13th century, those who survived the Crusade of Simon de Montfort created a Bastide in the east side of fort Alemanni, named Bastide of Mount Alaman or in Doat.

Later, in 1212, this Bastide was renamed Villeneuve by Déodat Alaman, who was the new founder.

The new fortified town was built on a ledge with a view to the Vère River.

Then the lordship was acquired by Louis d'Amboise, who became the new bishop of Albi.
