A unique UNESCO-listed heritage
Follow in the footsteps of the military engineer Vauban, who achieved the extraordinary feat of building the defensive and urban walls of Briançon and its foothills.
The Salettes, Trois Têtes and Randouillet fortifications, the Asfeld bridge and the fortified historic town centre of Briançon: a constellation of mountain forts. A total adaptation to the vertiginous mountainous terrain.
An extraordinary human feat that has earned the site UNESCO World Heritage status.
Also worth a visit are the fortifications at Montdauphin.
