The picturesque medieval village of Ramatuelle is a charming and typically Provençal destination in the Var countryside. Perched in the foothills of the Castellas Massif and overlooking the Bay of Pampelonne, it stands out for its tranquillity and authenticity. The village centre is remarkable for its unusual spiral layout. As you walk along the winding streets, you will notice architecture typical of the Mediterranean villages. Admire the succession of porches, passageways, little squares and pretty flower-adorned houses around the craft shops.
Ramatuelle has some interesting sights such as the 19th-century Eiffel steps on Place Gabriel Péri, the old prisons built during the reign of Napoleon III, the 17th-century Font-d'Avaou washhouse, the Chapel of St. Anne and the Church of Our Lady.
In the summertime, the village is busy with various well-known events such as the Ramatuelle Festival, Musiques en Liberté and Jazz à Ramatuelle.
