Seillans


Seillans
Seillans is an idyllic medieval village, set in the heart of Provence. It is the oldest fortified mountainous village in the Var department, and it is classified one of the prettiest villages in France. Seillans is perched like a nest on the mountain slope and it has fabulous views over the valley towards Lac de St. Cassien.

Town central square

Three gates lead into the old part of the village, which is full of historic atmosphere with beautifully restored houses and fountains, narrow cobbled streets and pretty little squares with fountains, over- shaded by big plane trees.

At the top of the village there is a privately owned castle, actually a picturesque gathering of buildings from the period between 1000 and 1600.
Seillans

Seillans has always magically attracted artists.

The important German artist Max Ernst settled down in Seillans and spent the last twelve years of his life here, happy with the beauty and atmosphere of the place. Before him it was the composer Charles Gounod and the journalist and writer Alphonse Karr, who looked for inspiration here.
Seillans

Seillans has also, as a few other towns, retained its perfume production.

The factories, which are situated in the hills a little outside of the village, are from 1883 and they are still doing solid business.
