Cogolin

On route N98 between Hyeres (32km) and St. Maxime (15km).

Cogolin
Located on the edge of the mountains of Maures and facing the Gulf of Saint Tropez, Cogolin is fortunate to be a stone's throw from the sea (and the mythical Saint-Tropez), to have an old village full of charm, a modern port converted into a marina as well as an international reputation for its pipe factories and carpet.
Cogolin, tower
The 14th century clock tower, a vestige of the old fortified eastle, overlooks the village. One can still see an ancient windmill.
The Church of St. Sauveur (first half of the 15th century), the Chapel of St. Roch in the 17th and 19th centuries, the vaults and the houses with serpentine or volcanic stone porches of the Moors are the proud witnesses of the rich past history of Cogolin..
Cogolin, bell tower
Many events are organized throughout the year, some beautiful exhibitions and museums are to be discovered..
The Raimu space, with its cinema and museum, is entirely dedicated to the great Jules Raimu, an eminent figure of Provence and the cinema of Pagnol. Created by his daughter, the museum is today managed by his granddaughter.
Cogolin, street
Throughout the year, craft fairs, flea markets, concerts and Provençal festivals enliven the village streets and attract many people.
4 km from the village, the marina of Cogolin is equipped with more than 1,500 rings. Its 4 pools are surrounded by residences with contemporary and original architecture.
Cogolin Marina
Shops, restaurants, shops and festivities liven up the quays and not far away, you will find the beach with its sailing base, its leisure area and its restaurants.
More intimate, Port-Cogolin is a charming little coastal shelter (180 rings) which offers all year round a choice of residences and villas with a warm welcome, superbly equipped with shops nearby..
