Sun, cicadas, a singing accent and the smell of lavender: this is how best to describe what awaits you if you spend your holidays in Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux. Just a few kilometres from Suze-la-Rousse and Pont-Saint-Esprit, halfway between Montélimar in the north and Orange in the south, this charming destination is really, really worth a look.

Moistened by the Donzère-Mondragon canal, Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux is located in the heart of the Drôme Provençale. Surrounded by fields of lavender, vines, truffles and fragrant olive trees, this municipality, once centred on agriculture, enjoys an environment that is all the more favourable to flourish. A village of character, this sunny village offers an ideal setting for holidaymakers looking for a relaxing and calm break, far from the hustle and bustle of the major destinations stormed by tourists. You will be dazzled by the astonishing beauty of its landscapes and nature, generous and tirelessly inviting you to stroll, hand in hand or by bike. But what to see in Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux? This former capital of the Tricastini, a Gallic people, is rich in a precious heritage that generations have taken care to preserve. The cathedral of the 12th and 13th centuries is one of its most beautiful treasures: in the Provençal Romanesque style, it is undeniably worth a visit thanks to the splendour of its decorations and mosaics, as is the Truffle and Tricastin Museum or the Tricastin Archaeology Museum, perfect for learning all about local culture and history. And to discover with your own eyes the richness of the past of this Provençal city, nothing beats walking along the alleys of the centre of its historic village. At the bend of a square, a paved street, a passage (such as the Passage du Château), a fountain, it is not uncommon for the famous Provençal charm to operate and in a few moments provoke a thunderbolt among passing visitors. Walls, private mansions made of white stone (from the quarries of Saint-Restitute), this Gallo-Roman fortified town (former bishopric's seat in the Middle Ages) is full of plethora, all built in a typically local character. The Chapelle Saint-Juste is also worth a visit: built in 1812, this perched chapel overlooks the entire city with its spur; easily accessible via a hiking trail of about 2.5 kilometres, it offers its visitors an incomparable panoramic view of Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux and a large part of the Rhône valley below.

Gourmet, Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux is also gourmet! A major place for black truffle production, the village organizes from mid-December to mid-March a famous truffle market (Place de l'Esplan), a must for lovers of this black diamond as well as for the curious who would like to learn more about the charms of this exceptional dish. But for a tasting, nothing beats pushing the door of the small restaurants of the town, to dive into the heart of the flavours of the Drôme Provençale: truffle omelette, truffle pasta, ravioles, picodon, nougat and other specialities based on Nyon oil and sun-drenched vegetables will delight children and adults alike.
