In a meander of the Var, the citadel of Entrevaux stands on the sides of a rocky spur. At the top, the view of the village and the valley is breathtaking.

Here you should have a head for heights. Includes warning sign. The path is wide enough and the height is impressive.

The city of Glanate was founded a few years before the start of the Christian era in a loop of the Var. From the 5th century, a bishopric was created there, which existed until the Revolution. What remains from this period is the choir of a Romanesque cathedral from the 12th century and episcopal buildings from the 18th century. The town then took the name Glandevès. The insecurity of the Middle Ages led the population to migrate to a rocky spur that was easy to defend and fortify. Located at the confluence of two valleys, Entrevaux was born, a fortified castle protected it. King François 1st made it a free royal town with privileges and exemption from taxes, which lasted until the Revolution in 1789. From this time dates the apogee of the city which then brought together around 1800 inhabitants (while the current population does not numbers more than 800 inhabitants). In the 17th century, under the warlike regime of Louis XIV, Vauban, military engineer and Marshal of France, reorganized the fortifications. He thus made it a place deemed impregnable. In 1704, during the War of the Spanish Succession, the fortress victoriously resisted the assaults of the troops of the Duke of Savoy, allied with the Emperor of Austria. During the Great War (1914-1918), the citadel served as a disciplinary prison for German officers. History has bequeathed to Entrevaux, narrow and tall houses, squares and fountains, triple row Genoese and many balconies, winding streets and awkward staircases, barracks and watchtowers, bridges and towers, guardhouses and loopholes, shops and shops, a Cathedral with sumptuous carved walnut doors, all witnesses of the active life of times gone by. Entrevaux is a piece of French history in the middle of terraced olive groves, set in massive limestone rocks. A magnificent village which deserves to be among the most beautiful villages in France.
