In the heart of the Alpilles, between Arles and Avignon, Saint Rémy is one of those 'must sees' of Provence. The village of St Rémy is pretty and picturesque, and the old Gallo-Roman interior is circled by the remnants of the circular 14th Century wall and the protective circle of buildings. Located on the plains at the northern edge of the Alpilles, 7 km from the magnificent and unmissable Beaux de Provence with its cool caves nestled in the rocks. 20 km south of Avignon, this is where Van Gogh painted Starry Night, Nostradamus born and Dr Albert Schweitzer was prisoner. Environment : On the edge of the village, at the foothills of the Alpilles, in a quiet area.
