GRIMAUD
Or the Secret of Happiness

Grimaud, a charming medieval village crowned by its Feudal castle, which, for a long time, was considered the guardian of the former Gulf of Grimaud, as the Bay of Saint-Tropez was called until the end of the 19th Century. The village invites you to take a walk through the centuries ; strolling along shady little lanes discovering remarkable sites provides calm and serenity, even at the height of the season. Take a plunge into the heart of history.


Not to be missed :

Port-Grimaud. A waterside village which emerged from the marshes in 1966, Port-Grimaud is a genuine architectural tour de force, signed by the famous 20th century architect François Spoerry. Visitors must leave their car at one of the fortified gates at the villages entrances and explore on foot or by boat. A real aesthetic success which has since been reproduced in the United States.

"Château de Grimaud". Listed monument dating back to the 11th century. Comprising a main building flagged by two towers, whose ruins reveal the three inner floors, this highly-fortified castle was protected by two walls, the largest of which was seven metres high. Today, just one more-or-less intact vaulted room remains.

"Pont-des-Fées footpath". Modern time aqueduct (XVIth or XVIIth century) which allowed, with a main and a siphon, to bring the Pancaou spring water, at about 3 km, until a fountain in the fairground. Exceptional work, unique of its kind in PACA region, to discover.


Panoramas :

"Château de Grimaud". The castle offers views over the village and surrounding country, to Port-Grimaud and the Bay of Saint-Tropez.

"Moulin de Grimaud" (Mill). Exceptional panorama over the Maures Hills and the coast.

"Eglise Saint-François" at Port-Grimaud. You can climb to the top of the church to enjoy fine views over the waterside village, the Bay of Saint-Tropez and the Maures Hills.
