When medieval history meets a lively art scene

Colourful Streets of the Old Town

Take a walking tour through paved and narrowed streets in the medieval town and admire authentic shops, vaulted passages, shady squares… Perched upon the hill, the ruins of the medieval castle built in the 11th century dominates the colourful streets of the old town. From the top of the hill, enjoy a breathtaking view of the Giens peninsula and the Island of Porquerolles.

Villa Noailles, the artistic avant-garde

In this opulent villa, the Noailles (renowned patrons) welcomed the artistic avant-garde of the twentieth century: Giacometti, Cocteau, Picasso, Dali and Man Ray… Come and discover this important place of creativity in fashion, photography, architecture and design. You can also stroll through the villa’s extraordinary garden and admire exotic plant species and breathe fresh and pure air.
