Colmars-les-Alpes,

A medieval town then fortified by the illustrious Vauban, Colmars-les-Alpes is at the crossroads of natural and historical heritage. A commune in the Mercantour National Park and a former border town, it is one of France’s most beautiful fortified towns. The town on the banks of the Verdon River boasts a surprising wealth of military and religious buildings. Its narrow streets secretly preserve the heritage of centuries gone by. Put your ear to the ground! The old stones have many stories to tell you.
