Provence Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Provence.
Marseille is the oldest city in France, the country’s largest commercial harbour and the capital of Provence, an enchanting region full of contrast.The most impressive religious building in Marseille is a fortified monastery church that dates back to the fifth century, the mighty Abbaye Saint Victor. Deep down in the rock is an Early Christian crypt and a number of stone sarcophaguses that contain the remains of various holy martyrs that date back to the Roman persecution of the Christians. Aix-En-Provence, along with its numerous lanes, is one of the most beautiful cities in France. More than forty spectacular fountains help to cool down this ancient town in the hot months of summer when both foreign and French tourists visit the city. ‘Sur Le Pont D’Avignon’ are the words of the world famous French song that is familiar to both young and old alike. It is a song of dance on the bridge of the Pont Saint Bénézet but it is more likely that the people here once danced under the bridge as that is the location of its bars! For almost two thousand years an imposing Roman amphitheatre has dominated the city of Nîmes. It is the capital of the Departement Gard that is situated on the periphery of Provence. One of the most well preserved mediaeval fortifications in Europe surrounds the small town of Aigues-Mortes along the western periphery of the Camargue in the south of France. The town was established in 1240. From the city wall that is eleven metres high and six metres thick, there is a wonderful view across the rooftops of the impregnable city. With historic towns in which both the Romans and the Papacy felt at home, and with blossoming fields of lavender and ancient mountain villages, Provence is a land of sweet aromas and radiant light.

Visite de La Cité d'Aigues-Mortes
Elevée sur un lido marécageux, Aigues-Mortes naît en 1240 de le volonté de saint Louis. Premier roi de France à disposer d'un port sur la Méditerranée, il s'impose sur des terres cernées par les puissances voisine. il batît la future tour de constance et un château aujourd'hui disparu, et aménage des canaux vers la mer
Les remparts d'Aigues-Mortes ont été construits par Saint Louis.
Les tours et remparts d'Aigues Mortes forment un monument ouvert au public par le Centre des monuments nationaux. La tour de Constance, fut érigée en 1242 par Saint Louis sur l’ancien emplacement de la tour Matafère, construite par Charlemagne vers 790, pour abriter la garnison du roi. Les travaux se terminèrent en 1254. Son diamètre est de 22 mètres, sa hauteur au sommet de la lanterne est de 33 mètres ou 40 mètres selon diverses sources… L’épaisseur des murs à la base est de 6 mètres. Au rez-de-chaussée, on trouve la salle des gardes avec son accès protégé par une herse. Au centre de la pièce, une ouverture circulaire permet d’accéder aux sous-sols qui servaient de garde-manger, de réserve de munitions et aussi de cachots. Ce lieu s’appelait les « culs de basse fosse ». Au premier étage, on accède à la salle des chevaliers. Elle ressemble de par sa structure à la salle des gardes. C’est dans cette salle que furent emprisonnées au XVIIIe siècle des protestantes dont la plus connue fut Marie Durand qui grava sur la margelle du puits le mot « résister ». Ce mot est toujours visible de nos jours. Elle fut emprisonnée à l’âge de 15 ans et libérée 38 ans plus tard, avec des prisonniers politiques (Abraham Mazel, chef camisard). Entre ces deux salles, un étroit chemin de ronde, fut construit dans l'épaisseur du mur pour surveiller la salle basse. Après la salle des chevaliers, on accède à la terrasse qui offre un large panorama sur la région, représentant ainsi un poste idéal de surveillance. Les prisonnières étaient quelquefois autorisées à venir y respirer l’air pur.
on peut y voir L'église Notre Dame des Sablons dernier témoignage de l'embarquement de Saint Louis pour les croisades. La date exacte de sa construction n'est pas connue. Elle a vraisemblablement été construite avant les remparts, vers le milieu du XIIIe siècle, à l'époque de saint Louis et est de style gothique

Places to see in ( Aigues Mortes - France ) Tour Carbonniere
The Carbonnière tower is a watchtower built at the end of the xiii th century to protect the walled city of Aigues-Mortes , in the French department of Gard in the region Occitan. The tower is located on the territory of the municipality of Saint-Laurent-d'Aigouze , in the Gard department and the Languedoc-Roussillon region .
It stands in the middle of marshes, between the Vistre and the Rhone canal at Sète , on the old road linking Saint-Laurent-d'Aigouze to Aigues-Mortes. Its terrace offers a panoramic view of the Petite Camargue. The Carbonnière Tower is mentioned for the first time in a text dated 1346 which gives details of the function of the work: it says that this fortress is the key to the kingdom in this country.
Indeed, located in the middle of marshes, it was the obligatory passage to access Aigues-Mortes: its crossing was the subject of a toll . It was held by a garrison composed of a chatelain and several guards. The terrace could support up to four pieces of artillery. It has been classified as a historical monument since 1889
Rectangular plan, the tower is built in ashlars to boss (ashlars with protruding central portion and accented joints), just like the walls of Aigues-Mortes. At mid-height, the tower has a row of more regular bossed stones with a darker color. Certain cut stones have marks of stonemason similar to those which one finds on the ramparts of Aigues-Mortes.
The road once passed through the tower, through a doorway defended by a portcullis and surmounted by a low arch. The base and the summit of the southern and northern facades is pierced by two great loopholes . The parapet of the platform that surmounts the tower has a single niche on each side and a watchtower at each corner.
At the end of 2009 , the Carbonnière tower was the subject of work aimed at ensuring the safety of the public, especially on the staircase and the terrace. A discovery trail has also been created in the surrounding marsh. These developments were carried out by the Center des monuments nationaux , the DRAC of the Languedoc-Roussillon region and the Joint Union for the protection and management of the Gard Camargue , as part of Operation Grand Site in Little Camargue.
