Highlight • Religious Site

Inside the beautiful cathedral, a chapel with a shell vault reminds us that we are on the path of St. James of Compostella.

La Baume Rock

Highlight • Other

The town of Sisteron where the citadel and the Baume rock are located is worth a stop and a thorough discovery. It is both pleasant and surprising. A town steeped in history marking the border between the Alps and Provence, both geographically and geopolitically (in the Middle Ages).

Sisteron Citadel

Highlight • River

Built on a narrow rocky spine facing the Baume rock bordering the other bank of the Durance, the citadel of Sisteron dominates the town. It includes bastion enclosures and a keep. Its origin dates from the 13th, even the 12th century. Largely destroyed in 1944, the citadel was the subject of a vast restoration plan.

Finally, a walk to the top of the citadel offers one of the most spectacular views in the region.
