Aigues Mortes Overview

 

The origin of Aigues-Mortes goes back a long way. Men used to collect salt, to tame the whims of a wild nature, and a malarial climate long before King Louis IX came in the XIIIth century to glorify the history of these sites. Henceforth Aigues-Mortes, a withdrawn medieval witness, evolves and surprises, crossing inexorably wars, conflicts, times of peace, centuries of glory and misery. Its towers and ramparts are marked by time, haunted by the mystery of their resistance.

Nowadays, Aigues-Mortes preserves its traditional games with bulls. Centre of Camargue gastronomy, it turns to the Mediterranean sea and combines the secret of the past and the charm of the future.

Thanks to its serene climate, the country around Aigues-Mortes is a paradise for a huge number of birds whether migrating or sedentary. Benefitting from a nature and vegetation unique in Europe, it is well-known to ornithologists of the entire world and can be discovered on foot, on horseback, by bicycle, by safari in a landrover or by boat all year round.

Les Salins du Midi. The biggest producer of salt in France with 10 000 hectares, its origins date from antiquity. It's a real natural reserve for fauna and flora of the Camargue.
