Bagnols-en-Forêt
Bagnols-en-Forêt is an idyllic medieval village, beautifully situated at 280 metres above sea level in the department of Var, 18 km from Fréjus on the coast. Bagnols-en-Forêt is, due to its situation in spectacular natural scenery between the Haut Var and the Côte d’Azur, a very good place to spend a holiday, both for trips along the coast and trips into the beautiful Provencal hinterland.

Bagnols-en-Forêt

Bagnols-en-Forêt is a quiet, little village, but extremely interesting and definitely worth a visit.

It lies in a clearing surrounded by chestnut trees and pine forest, and there are magnificent panoramic views of the valleys and hills south and west of the village. Bagnol-en-Forêt is typically Provencal with small winding streets, shady squares and old stone houses. The church St. Antonin, in the centre of the village, was rebuilt in the 16th and 17th century and has a splendid bell tower with a classic Provencal wrought iron campanile on top. In the central square, there is a unique bronze fountain, and you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the shadow from the big plane trees.

If you climb to the top of the village, you will find a small chapel, Chapelle Ste.

Anne, with an interesting octogonal pyramidal shaped bell tower. You also find a park with the most extraordinary view of the surrounding landscape. Next to the park is the local football pitch, and here you also find a peculiar round building covered by ivy.
