Architecture in Les Plus Beaux Villages de France
Whilst Les Plus Beaux Villages de France are selected primarily for the richness of their heritage, this concept goes far beyond that and takes into account two essential elements of the villages’ identity: architecture and town planning.
Emblematic of their history, geographical location, geological features and climate, the architecture of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France reflects the regions, their local character, their culture and their traditional skills. From the medieval bastides of the South-West to cave dwellings, via unusual architectural styles whose origins are sometimes little known, discover here all our ideas for exploring and holidaying centred on this theme!
