A must see when in the area. Very well organised, super safe and yet super exciting. The walk along the tops of the city walls make a perfect loop around the town and includes four or five towers that you can go up for spectacular views of the surroundings. We did the walls first and then finished in the impressive Constance Tower which is the largest and oldest building, dating from 1248. Great m...

Fun walk around the ramparts of the town. It costs €8 per adult and children are free. Tickets can be purchased from the booth near the entrance. There was a small queue when we visited. It takes between 60 and 75 minutes to walk the perimeter.

Definitely one of the best city wall walks regarding its price and quality. It’s worth it. I can say that the view and historical value is equal or even more important than the one from Carcassonne as its walls were reconstructed. These ones are perfect saved and you have a chance to visit a lot of towers and exhibitions for 9 euro per person.

This is an intact medieval walled city, on the coastal plain of Provence. About 3/4 of the walled city is residential, about 1/4 is restaurants, and shops. It is amazing. Try the "Bull Stew with rice." There are several parking lots around the outside, the signs will tell you if there are spaces available. Pay at the machine before returning to your car, and scan the barcode on the receipt to op...

These grandiose ramparts belted the city of Aigues-Mortes and dominate the panorama on the Camargue and the Salin ! A 18th century fortified enclosure erected on the initiative of Louis IX. It is 1640 meters of ramparts surrounding the city and flanked by 10 doors and 6 towers. The Tower of Constance is one of the most majestic of the architecture of the Middle Ages. She is also sadly famous for...

Nice city encircled by a wall built in the 1300s. You can visit the dungeons and walk around the wall. It has a nice view over the village and over the outside: you can see the pink saline water, the salt piles, the Rône, and a lot more! There are plenty of videos and animations all along the wall that explain the history. These videos/animations are in french and have English and German subtitles...
