In the early seventeenth century, fortifications were erected by the military engineer Raymond Bonnefons on the hill of Moulins to protect the citadel of the invader. Accessible by a path lined with eucalyptus, Citadel offers harmonious lush vegetation where the peacocks strutting like freedoms. Since the various terraces, the castle offers a panoramic view of the sea and the Gulf of Saint Tropez and on snowy winter mountains and coasts of the red Esterel. Become symbols, Spanish cannons along the terraces persist in their role as guardian of the Citadel.
