Mont-Dauphin Citadel Recommended Recommended : Michelin's recommendations

One of Vauban’s greatest works, the town is striking for the breadth of its streets and grid pattern; everything here has a defensive function… Visiting the citadel reveals the quality of its architecture: from the gunpowder store with its well-preserved larchwood ceiling, to the arsenal where artillery pieces were kept, not forgetting the extraodinary 260m-long Rochambeau barracks above the Guil gorge.

    Pros

    Superbe citadelle Vauban, à la croisée des vallées de la Durance et du Queyras, avec des vues superbes sur les-dites vallées. Un plaisir également de se balader le long des douves.

    Cons

    Mériterait amplement d'être restaurée sur certains des bâtiments, pour une utilisation plus touristique et historique (la citadelle a été pendant longtemps une caserne militaire).
