An exceptional medieval city.
Let your imagination take you on a tour of this fortified town, which has retained all the charm of times gone by. Lose yourself in the winding lanes that bear witness to ancient times. Don’t forget to climb up to the Citadelle, perched like a knight on his way to the castle, for unbeatable views of the village and valley!
Opposite you, two towers enclose theroyal gate and its drawbridge over the Var.
A glance over the parapet, through the door and off you go. Tall houses, stalls, narrow dark alleys dotted with squares and fountains – you’re back in the Middle Ages.
A symbol of Provence, the olive tree can be found at the gateway to the Verdon, near Entrevaux. Grown in terraces on the slopes of the town, the olive tree is an integral part of the village landscape. As in most of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region, the most common variety is the aglandau, which gives a fruity green oil.
