Das Dorf
Entdecken Sie das niedliche Dorf Entrevaux – Photographie by Seb.F
Entrevaux is a stunning medieval fortified village, set between the Var River and a series of cliffs and mountains atop which sit the village’s famous citadel. The village is nearly unchanged since medieval times and strolling through its labyrinth streets is like walking back in time. There are many excellent restaurants, cafés and bars to be found in the maze of cobblestone alleys and streets. Entrance to the village is gained by crossing a defensive drawbridge and going through the imposing Royal Gate.
The Citadel
Built on a stone escarpment along a narrow rocky overhang, the Citadel can be reached by climbing up a paved, zigzagging path; it takes about 15 minutes to walk up, but the views along the way are truly extraordinary.
Located on what was the border between France and the Duchy of Savoy, this fortress has survived the trials and tribulations of many wars: victories, defeats, sieges, occupations, and has successfully protected the village for centuries.
You can explore the Citadel itself, and also climb up to the very top for magnificent views of the region, stretched out for miles and miles in every direction. Behind the citadel begin a number of hiking trails of various difficulties and lengths; information and maps can be found at the Tourism Office as you enter the town.
Die Kathedrale
The Entrevaux cathedral is a mix between gothic architecture and baroque interior décor. This typical cathedral of the 17th century is perfectly maintained and built into the fortifications of the town. The large walnut door leads into a richly coloured and decorated interior.
