But also ironwork and stone ornaments, testimony to a rich past. Without forgetting many fountains of fresh and clear water.

Cotignac, otherwise known as the “petit saint tropez du var” because of the number of celebrities who have a home there.

The rock, which stretches over 400m, is an astonishing sight. The sun by moving the shadows constantly changes its appearance. And brings out gigantic stalactites, ledges, and deep crevices. The whole overhanging of 80m the houses built at its feet.
