Saint-Rémy-de-Provence: Walking tour to discover the village

Stroll through the historic old town of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence with a multilingual local guide, among mansions, fountains and shaded alleyways.
Meet in front of the Hôtel Gounod, Place de la République. It was in this former coach inn that the composer Charles Gounod stayed in the spring of 1863 to write his opera Mireille, based on the poem by Frédéric Mistral.

St. Martin's Collegiate Church. Opposite the hotel, discover this church with its surprising Neoclassical portico, rebuilt at the beginning of the 19th century after the collapse of the old building, of which only the Gothic bell tower was preserved. Its organ is renowned far beyond Provence.

Nostradamus' birthplace. On Rue Hoche, a plaque marks the house where Michel de Nostredame was born in 1503. Physician, astrologer, author of the famous Propheties: let's separate the legend from history.

The Porte Saint-Paul, one of the few remnants of the medieval walls that once encircled the historic old town.

Place Pélissier, a shaded square where the town hall stands.

The Musée Estrine. In front of this 18th-century mansion, which now houses a museum of modern art and an interpretation center dedicated to Van Gogh, your guide will talk about the year the painter spent in Saint-Rémy, from May 1889 to May 1890, and the paintings he created there, including The Starry Night.

The Nostradamus Fountain, the city's tribute to its most famous son.

The Porte du Trou, another medieval gateway to the historic old town.

The Hôtel de Sade. Built in the late 15th century by Balthazar de Sade on the ruins of Roman thermal baths, it now houses the finest artifacts discovered at Glanum.

The Hôtel de Lagoy and its Renaissance façade, listed as a historic monument.

The Hôtel Mistral de Mondragon, a Renaissance mansion built around an elegant inner courtyard, which houses the Musée des Alpilles.

Place Favier. Once a market square, it is now lined with galleries and artists' workshops, in the heart of the historic old town.

Drop-off at the Hôtel Gounod. You are then free to continue exploring by visiting the museums, the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole Monastery or the Glanum site (admission not included).
