CultureLe Cimetière Marin de Saint Tropez
Many visitors make the trek up the hill overlooking the city to the Citadel, yet just down the slope a more magical, if somewhat mournful sight awaits. Overlooking the azure waters of the Mediterranean is the Cimetière Marin de Saint-Tropez. Since 1791 this sundrenched sanctuary has been the final resting place for both highborn and humble residents. Wander at your leisure past the graves of mariners, war heroes, artists, musicians, and legendary filmmaker Roger Vadim, who cemented the area as an international hotspot with And God Created Woman. Take it all in while enjoying the sea breeze and a breathtaking view stretching along the far coast of the Gulf of St Tropez.
