Your experience
Stop 1
You are currently in the Safranier district. It is part of the ancient center of Antibes, and reveals beautiful picturesque alleys that make us feel like in a small Mediterranean village. But it is a place that has a very special history
Stop 2
Look here at this amazing statue. It is called the Challenge, and depicts a character standing on the ramparts, stretching his foot in the void. If it can give rise to many interpretations, its Contributor, Nicolas Lavarenne, explains it as a symbol of a step towards the unknown, and I quote, “one that can upset a lifetime”.
Stop 3
Here you arrive in front of the Poets' Garden. Along the city walls, this small public park features exotic plants, cacti and succulents that give it a very special look. Inside, there are some works and quotes that pay tribute to the great French and international poets. You notice in particular the bust of Victor Hugo
Stop 4
Here you are in front of the last washhouse still present in Antibes. It dates from the 19th century. Washing machines, you must have seen them in many other cities in France. But do you know their story? They usually all date back to the 19th century, and it is no coincidence that a wave of construction was launched at this time.
Stop 5
Take a look on your right: you are facing the oldest fountain in the city! And it comes straight from antiquity. During this period, two Roman aqueducts were built to supply the Antipolis city with water.
Stop 6
Here you are in one of the most pleasant squares in the anti-wood city center!
Stop 7
Here you are in Rue de la République, one of the most commercial streets in Antibes! Here you have the choice: ready-to-wear, jewelry, shoes...
Stop 8
Look at the building on your right, which is at the corner of Paul Martelli Street. This chapel with neo-Gothic facade is part of the historical heritage of Antibes.
Stop 9
We now arrive at the National Square, one of the main squares of the city. Here too, you have plenty to stop for a moment to eat or have a drink!
Stop 10
We arrive here at the beginning of the Cour Masséna, one of the main streets of Antibes. In front of you, you cannot miss it, is an imposing work witness to the long history of the city.
Stop 11
Here you are in front of one of the most famous markets in Provence! It is open every morning from Tuesday to Sunday so even if it is not open during your visit, you will certainly have the opportunity to discover it at another time.
