    Cycling

    The “Tour de Constance” served mainly as a prison for Protestants during the Huguenot Wars. Today it is one of the symbols of the city.

    Hiking

    The Tour de Constance was built from 1242 in Aigues-Mortes, by Saint Louis, on the former site of the Tour Matafère, built by Charlemagne around 790, to accommodate the king's garrison.
    This construction is part of the transformation of Aigues-Mortes into a strategic point with a port opening onto the Mediterranean Sea.

    Mountain biking

    The 1,634 meter long city wall forms an almost perfect rectangle and, with its ten gates and towers, encloses an old town that is a pleasure to stroll through.
