Saint Rémy de Provence PDF Print E-mail
st-remy.gifSituated in the heart of the Alpilles Mountain range, Saint Rémy is one of the "must-sees" in Provence. Surrounded by lush green perfumed valleys, its ancient streets are lined with beautifully restored old houses... you will soon be seduced by Saint Rémy's charm!

While strolling through the narrow winding streets, you will discover fantastic old fountains, shady squares, picturesque restaurants and elegant boutiques. From the place Jean Jaurès to the gates of the old town, you will come across a long succession of "hôtels particuliers" (often converted into museums or art galleries), convents, chapels, and ornate houses from the 17th and 18th century.

Saint Rémy has a wonderful Wednesday morning market. You will find charming souvenirs and delicious treats. There are plenty of ATM’s around so bring your card with you.

The beauty of the countryside and the quality of light has inspired many artists, writers and painters. Without a doubt, the most famous was Vincent Van Gogh who produced more than150 paintings of the countryside surrounding Saint Rémy de Provence. He came here in 1889 to be treated at the Saint-Paul de Maussole monastery, of which the gardens and 12th century cloisters are open to the public.
