Riviera Heritage Trail

The French Riviera's heritage spans from ancient Greek foundations at Antibes' Picasso Museum to the 16th-century Gothic architecture of Cannes' Church of Our Lady of Hope. This trail features military strongholds like the 16th-century Fort Carré and Fort Saint-Louis, alongside Belle Époque icons like the Carlton Cannes. Visitors can explore medieval ruins in Hyères, the neo-Palladian Villa Aurélienne in Fréjus, and the restored Château de la Napoule, reflecting a diverse history of defensive fortifications and aristocratic luxury.
