Towers and Ramparts of Aigues-Mortes
Highlight • Historical Site
They are particularly notable for their good condition. Together with the Tower of Constance, they form an exceptional testimony in Western Europe of military architecture in a swampy environment in the 13th and 14th centuries.
The ramparts, castle and tower of Constance have been classified as a historic monument since December 1, 1903.
Here is also the entrance to take a walk on the city walls (paying).

Aigues-Mortes — fortified town
Highlight • Historical Site
Before this fortification and the creation of a large port, the city was above all a village of fishermen and salt workers, the surrounding marshes and ponds being exploited since the Neolithic period. The name of the city comes from these marshes or “Eaux Mortes” (nowadays magnificent and rich in biodiversity, like all of the Camargue, but at the time rather synonymous with disease).
