HERITAGE BETWEEN THE CORNICHE AND THE CEVENNES VALLEYS

Along the Corniche des Cévennes, the old royal road between Nîmes and Saint-Flour, set off to discover the Cévennes heritage. Built along a ridge during the Wars of Religion to allow the king's dragoons to monitor movements in the adjacent valleys, the road leads you down into one of them, the Vallée Française. Discover the Tour du Canourgue, the church of Sainte-Croix, and Notre-Dame de Val-Francesque, testaments to the region's past seigniorial and ecclesiastical power.
