    The stronghold of Mont-Dauphin built by Vauban from 1693 is one of the 12 major Vauban sites listed in 2008 as UNESCO World Heritage. Behind its pink marble ramparts, you will see the barracks where Louis XIV's soldiers lived, the watchtowers on the sheer cliff where they watched, the powder magazine, the arsenal where they kept guns and powder.
    You will also find an unusual village where 170 inhabitants live, like everyone else, but in an extraordinary setting of southern sun, dazzling snow, silence and stones steeped in history. From the rampart, observe the strategic node of valleys.
