A cultural program punctuates the time and the seasons. Exhibitions, conferences, wellness activities, musical, artistic, and craft events…
“The Friends of Bastide Marin” work to preserve the memory of this place.
La Bastide MARIN has been a historical monument since March 4, 2013.
Jardin solidaire de Méditerranée and Jardin de Noé recognize it as an Eco place, the Heritage Foundation supports its restoration through a national subscription, and a Sponsorship Club supports its actions.
It consists of a Manor House, a farm, a courtyard with a well and a natural setting made up of several remarkable, landscaped, secret and harmonious gardens.
It is the Interpretation Centre for Mediterranean Matrimony
An innovative concept that goes beyond the simple notion of transmission from father to son - heritage.
This concept is inspired by the history of this place linking the Mediterranean Sea to the land of Provence; glorious long-distance navigators lived here for several centuries.
They braved storms, epidemics, and pirates. As members of the Order of Malta, their fortified town was hospitable.
