This tour is only in French
Wander through cobbled streets, slip under forgotten porches, open mysterious doors, enjoy poetic pauses in the shade of tree-lined squares - that's the program for your next stay in Grimaud with Sous le Soleil de Marie.
Did you know that under the Ancien Régime, the area was known as the Golfe de Grimaud, a symbol of seigneurial power?
This guided tour invites you to retrace this period in the village's history.
Your tour guide, a native of the area, will show you the traces of life in the past that time has all but erased. The tour begins with a visit to one of the oldest Romanesque churches in the area. The tour continues along the walls of medieval houses, which reveal their past if you look closely enough. Your guide will take you back through the centuries as you wander through the interwoven streets, marked by the imprints of time. You'll be enchanted by the enchanting scents of jasmine or bougainvillea in bloom, while little green lizards will hide as you pass between the joints of the marbled or volcanic stones of Provence. This walk through the history and life of the area will take you to the heart of the castle enclosure, which was at the origin of the village's development.
The Château de Grimaud, overlooking the Gulf and surrounding area, offers a unique view of the hills, the surrounding area and the sea.
At the end of the tour, you'll know all about the local heritage. What's more, your guide will give you all the tips and addresses you need to know about Grimaud and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
