Cagnes-sur-Mer
Cagnes-sur-Mer liegt im Departement Alpes Maritimes zwischen Nizza und Antibes. Cagnes-sur-Mer besteht aus drei Teilen, die mittlerweile zusammengewachsen und eine einheitlich Agglomeration bilden: Der Badeort Cros-de-Cagnes, Cagnes-Ville mit dem eigentlichen Stadt- und Handelszentrum und Haut-de-Cagnes, die mittelalterliche Altstad. Haut-de-Cagnes ist der interessanteste Stadtteil. Der große Maler des Impressionismus, Auguste Renoir, zog wegen schwerer rheumatischer Erkrankung hierher und lebte von 1903 bis 1919 im Haus Les Colettes, das von alten Olivenbäumen und Blumen umgeben war. Im Haus ist heute das Renoir-Museum eingerichtet und alles steht noch so, wie als der Maler 1919 starb. Hier gibt es u.a. zehn Werke von Renoir und Werke von seinen Freunden Bonnard und Dufy.
Details über Cagnes-sur-Mer Alle Ferienhäuser - Cagnes-sur-MerDie befestigte Altstadt Haut-de-Cagnes liegt ganz oben auf einem kleinen Berg. Sie ist von steilen, verwinkelten Gassen und Treppenstraßen durchquert, und es gibt hier viele kleine idyllische Plätze. Haut-de-Cagnes ist vor allem interessant wegen des alten Grimaldi-Schlosses aus dem 14. Jahrhundert. Auf dem Platz vor dem Schloss gibt es zahlreiche Cafés und Nachtklubs, und es kann hier an einem Sommerabend sehr lebhaft sein. Durch einen mittelalterlichen Tor gelangt man hinein auf dem eigentlichen Schlossplatz, Place Grimald, mit dem Eingang zum Museum. Das Schloss ist eine kuriose Miniaturen-Burg und wurde ursprünglich als Festung und Gefängnis gebaut, aber im 17. Jahrhundert wurde sie von den Grimaldis aus dem italienischen Adel umgebaut. Den italienischen Einfluss sieht man noch ganz deutlich. Hier finden jeden Sommer Ausstellungen zeitgenössischer Künstler statt. Die Ausstellungen hier haben jetzt so einen guten Ruf, dass die Künstler aus aller Welt, diese Ausstellung dafür danken können, dass sie international anerkannt geworden sind.

Cagnes-sur-Mer, situated between Nice and Antibes, first of all offers a magnificent, fortified old quarter, Haut-de-Cagnes, perched high up on top of a small rock. The town is intersected by steep, winding streets and stairways and a multitude of small, idyllic squares. At the top of the town you will find the ancient Grimaldi castle from the 14th century.
The most fashionable town on the French Riviera with its long elegant promenade La Croisette and the luxurious Hotel Carlton. Lying across from Cannes is Iles de Lérins, two charming flower filled little islands, Ste-Marguerite and St-Honoret. Ste-Marguerite, the island closest to the mainland is almost covered in pine forest. It is particularly renowned because of ”the man with the iron mask” who was imprisoned here and whose identity is still unknown. At St-Honoret there is a beautiful old monastery, dating from the 11th century. In earlier times, St-Honoret was a religious centre for southern Europe and the monastery owned most of the land along the Mediterranean including Cannes. The island is still inhabited by monks. A museum and a church can be visited by the public.
Has almost grown together with the neighbouring town St-Raphaël. In Fréjus one can find a characteristic French promenade with nice, little cafés and a multitude of restaurants, bars and discos, seething with life every night.

The Principality of Monaco (pop.: 31,842) is a sovereign state lying out to the Mediterranean and surrounded by the French Alpes Maritimes department. Its geographical extent of 2 km² makes Monaco the world’s smallest country. Monaco is nicknamed The Mediterranean Manhattan as it is packed with sky scrapers and sumptuous villas. It is a constitutional monarchy and Prince Albert’s family, the Grimaldies, have reigned in Monaco since 1297. Monaco consists of three towns: The old town, Monaco-Ville, with the Royal Palace on top of a cliff, Monte-Carlo with its very famous Casino and the residential area la Condamine, with its big marina.

The artists’ town, St-Paul-de-Vence, is one of the prettiest and most picturesque villages in the region. Here one can find Auberge Colombe d’Or, one of southern France’s most famous restaurants.
This town has almost grown together with the neighbouring town, Fréjus. Since the middle of the 19th century St-Raphaël has been a popular holiday resort with nice, sandy beaches, marina and good shopping facilities. It was at this place Napoleon landed on his way back from Egypt in 1799, and so did the French- American troupes in 1944. One of the greatest sights in the town is a Templar’s church, dating back to the 12th century.
Originally St-Tropez was a small, humble, fishing village, until Brigitte Bardot, Françoise Sagan and other celebrities discovered the town in the 1950’s and pulled in the whole jet set. In high season (August), around 80,000 tourists arrive at this extraordinary holiday resort. Despite this “big circus” in the summer, the town is definitely worth a visit.
A most charming medieval village, situated between Cannes and Nice, only 14 km from the coast. It is renowned for its culture of violets. Tourrettes-sur-Loup is very much worth a visit.
