Dominated by the ruins of its 11th-century castle, the hilltop town dominates the bay of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, which was called the Gulf of Athenopolis during the French Revolution and later the Gulf of Grimaud. The mostly medieval-looking town lies between the main road D 588 and the castle complex, at the foot of the heavily wooded Maures massif, which extends eastwards from Hyères and Pierrefeu-du-Var to Fréjus.

Beautiful place in the hinterland with medieval flair, which is definitely worth a visit! At the highest point, the remains of the castle can be visited free of charge, from here you have a wonderful panoramic view of the surrounding mountain landscape and the coast. We particularly liked the romantic, narrow and winding streets and the wonderfully decorated houses.
