Les incontournables à Antibes
Antibes Unmissables
Antibes blends ancient history with 20th-century art. The Picasso Museum, housed in the 14th-century Château Grimaldi, stands over the Greek foundations of Antipolis. The 16th-century Fort Carré offers a star-shaped bastion overlooking the harbor, while the Marché Provençal showcases local spices and produce. Artistic landmarks include Jaume Plensa’s 'Le Nomade' sculpture and the Peynet Cartoon Museum. For relaxation, the sandy Plage de la Gravette and the sailor's chapel of Notre-Dame de la Garoupe provide views across the Mediterranean coastline.
