In the heart of Provence, this charming village enjoys a real provençal art de vivre : wander along the boulevards under the plane-tree shade, stroll around the narrow streets, find out a square where a fountain gently gurgles, the attractive boutiques and the Art galeries bring life to this town center.
Take a seat at a café or a restaurant terrace and taste the aromatic local cuisine. Getting to Saint Rémy de Provence also means taking advantage of the Natural Park of the Alpilles
If you get there you will understand how this magic environment where the sun shines more than 300 days per year has enchanted so many people, including well-known personalities.

Another wonderful place to add to our places in France to see. We went Les Baux-de-Provence and to places around Avignon – such a lovely part of the world

Beautiful images! We visited Glanum and Les Baux in 1990 but sadly didn’t explore Saint-Remy itself. It looks so wonderful and full of the character of the region – the bright sun always seems to be shining!
All the best 🙂

Years ago we wanted to visit Glanum (the nearby Roman excavation) but got stopped in Saint-Remy because of their Whit Monday Sheep Procession. Afterwards we still visited the Roman ruins (which are spectacular!) and never regretted our break, the sight of a sea of sheep in a charming town full of festival spirit was something I never forgot.
