    Villefranche-de-Conflent is a town with an exceptional heritage: from the Middle Ages to the present day, time has left in its stones the marks of the men who built, conquered, or lived there. More than any other, Vauban, the "wanderer of the Sun King," has left his mark here.

    Very beautiful fortress. A (guided) tour is recommended, especially in the evening with a lantern. Inside the fortress there are many lovely shops with regional products and of course restaurants where you can enjoy good food.
