Tourrettes


Tourrettes
The charming little village of Tourrettes lies high up in the heart of Provence, 25 km west of Cannes and Grasse and 30 km north of one of the Riviera’s best beaches in St-Aygulf. Tourrettes is situated in a very mountainous and lush area with Provence’s many picturesque villages within close reach, including the very pleasant Fayence only 4 km away. Tourrettes is, for this reason, an ideal starting point for the holiday.

Holiday homes in Tourettes

Tourrettes is a quiet village, definitely worth a visit.

It is a typical mountain village with narrow streets and alleys, old medieval stone houses and shady squares. At Place de l’Horloge, at the top of the village, one can find a square bell tower which is the only remains from the Château des seigneurs de Villeneuve, “les seigneurs” who ruled the town from the 13th century until the revolution. From this place there is a fantastic view of the surrounding countryside and of the Estérel mountains far out in the horizon. In the town one can also find a chapel, la chapelle des Pénitents, founded by the monks from the Lérins islands off Cannes.
Holiday in Tourettes

The town is dominated by the imposing and very characteristic Château du Puy, built in 1830 by General Alexandre Fabre, one of France’s first engineers, who was, on request from the Russian Tsar, hired out to Russia by Napoleon to assist in expanding the road infrastructure in Russia.

He stayed there for 20 years and returned to Tourrettes as a highly decorated general. Unfortunately the castle is privately owned and cannot be visited.
