Callian


Callian
The little medieval village Callian lies beautifully at a level of 325 metres in the department of Var between Grasse and Draguignan, and 30 km from Fréjus on the coast. Due to its fantastic situation in beautiful surrounding countryside between the Massif de l’Estérel and the foot hills of the Alps, Callian is a perfect place to spend a holiday.

<i>La Château fort</i>

The town is very characteristic with its winding streets and an old feudal castle on the hilltop.

Le château fort, with towers from the 12th and 13th century, was rebuilt in the 17th century. The castle is today privately owned. In the town there are several old buildings, amongst others an old chapel which is used for art exhibitions and classical concerts. The oldest building in the town, the former parish church, Chapelle Notre Dame des Roses, dates back to the 10th century and is an archaeological site with excavations from the Gallo-Roman period. At the very pleasant square, Place de la Bourguignon, in front of the church, there is a pretty cascade. Here it is worth enjoying a drink to the music of the running water.
The town hall in Callian

From a view point in the town, you have the most fantastic view of the lake, Lac de St.

Cassien, which lies close to the town, and the two mountain ranges Estérel and Maures. Christian Dior’s (1905-1957) grave can be seen in the town’s churchyard. He lived in the Château de la Colle in the neighbouring town of Montauroux.
