Grimaud Attractions

Grimaud is situated inland on the site of a settlement which was used by the Ligurians; it is a "village perché", high above the Plain of Cogolin and with a particularly picturesque townscape. Of interest are the ruins of the fortress (11th C.; view) and the Church of St-Michel, also dating from the 11th C. Also well preserved is the Maison des Templiers (House of the Templars) with its Gothic arcades. Some 2km/1mi east on the road from Port-Grimaud stands the charming Chapel of Notre-Dame-de-la-Queste.
