Medieval town of Vaison

Across the Roman bridge, the medieval town of Vaison invites you to discover its narrow streets and architectural heritage. Look out for the belfry, the former town hall and the religious buildings beneath the castle overlooking the hill. The district offers another perspective on Vaison’s history, complementing the ancient town and the lower town.
