Immerse yourself in the heart of the authenticity of Grimaud and go back the centuries along the flowery paths. The monuments of Grimaud make you feel the past but not only... The cobbled streets, the stone walls tell stories that they are perhaps the last to know. It resonates with the secrets of Grimaud. Lose yourself in the alleys, a thousand stories have happened there. It’s up to you to imagine them. Grimaud, in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, is a village proudly displaying the colors of Provence. A Provence that is part of a medieval atmosphere, with its houses, its alleys, its Castle... The latter is the best known of the monuments in Grimaud, but did you know that it was far from being the only heritage building? When summer arrives, it brings with it the blooming bougainvillea. And what a wonder! The buildings of the old village are then adorned with a tailor-made purple dress to decorate the doors and windows of the houses. Some bougainvilleas even climb a whole section of the facade. They are looking for the sun, to sunbathe every time! It is a beautiful shrub that is often found in the Mediterranean, it is rare to find it in colder regions because it does not resist frost (a bit like the inhabitants of the south, it must be admitted). A village flowered by its inhabitants Every year, every season, the inhabitants of the old village delight us with their plantations which mingle, gently, with the houses, the alleys. We nicknamed them among ourselves: “the village gardeners”. It is impossible to miss the bougainvilleas during your visit. The best time to discover them is between the end of May/July. They may bloom again after summer as well. Find the “bougainvillea walk“ where around thirty shrubs are referenced and admire them in the alleys of Grimaud. A village blessed by the gods The heart of the perched village, wonderfully restored, has kept all its authenticity: cobbled streets, facades with vaulted arcades, pastel windows with flowery shutters, squares with bougainvillea essences. Unmissable, the discovery tour of the village, its churches and chapels bears witness to a rich historical past, traces of which can be found in the Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions. The feudal castle, placed at the top of the hill in its green setting, guarded access to a territory (the current Gulf of Saint-Tropez), called “Le Freinet“, from the Middle Ages to the French Revolution. The view from above is unforgettable. After a restaurant break in the village, go to the Moulin Saint-Roch, prelude to a walk below to the Pont des Fées, where you will make wishes to… but that must remain a secret! #grimaud #France #Provence #travel #frenchvillage #medievalvillage #BeautifulVillage
