Grimaud, a village with many faces for an unforgettable holiday. Go from the port to the fort, from the land to the sea, all sprinkled with memorable activities and experiences.

Founded in 1982 by two grimaudois; Decuers André and Guy Giraud, the museum has been enriched over the years with donations of objects from the local population that cares about its heritage. Today extended by the municipality, this patient work of recovery and conservation allows you to discover its rich past and this old Provençal life.

The first mention of the parish church of Grimaud appeared in 1069 in a charter of the cartulary of the abbey of Saint Victor Marseille: Pons, son of Viscount William, exchanged with the monks of Saint-Victor half the lordship of Grimaud located in the castle against Freinet Vidauban. However, the location and architecture of the early church remain undetermined. The church as it is offered to us today dates from the second age Provencal Romanesque (late twelfth - early thirteenth century). The shell granite and limestone elements (cornices, arches and arched door) are paired with care. Its construction required a significant mobilization of men and beasts for transport of materials, substantial financial resources and a large technical expertise. This makes it a remarkable building for the time, there is no equivalent in the Freinet, a relatively poor country where cultural premises were modest construction. Inside, the decor (nineteenth century) represents St. Michael slaying a dragon surrounded by St. Peter and St. Bartholomew (rather than St. Paul whose worship is rare in Provence). Previously, the walls were covered with ocher-colored plaster and perhaps completely decorated with a painted decoration as we can still see some remains.

Founded in the fifteenth century, in the seventeenth century it is called "Our Lady of Coulet" (from the old Provençal: hill). The White Penitents officiated there. This brotherhood was assisting the needy in the village. During the revolutionary period, the chapel housed the first municipal councils in 1790.

This large medieval ruin is a listed monument. The foundation of the castle seems to go back to the beginning of the eleventh century since 1058, the site is mentioned in a deed of gift to the abbey of St. Victor of Marseille. Construction of buildings that have survived seem to stagger between the thirteenth and seventeenth century by which time it was dismantled on royal order. During the Revolution the City Council demolished what was left.

Chapel St Roch (eighteenth century): Saint Roch is mentioned as protection from contagious diseases including the plague. Inside, are the paintings of the saint's life from 1937 and medieval altar stone basalt.

This mill, formerly called "Moulin de la Gardiole" is known since the seventeenth century. It seems to have worked sporadically. In the nineteenth century it belonged to the Aumeran family, then in 1886 the parish priest of Grimaud: Giraud Zechariah. It now belongs to the municipality. In the 1990s, the cross located on the tower was moved, the wings, the roof and the whole mechanism were recreated to revive this monument.

The site of the chapel is frequented since at least the sixth century BC. It was at the end of the eleventh century the monks of the abbey of St. Victor of Marseille founded a small Romanesque chapel dedicated to Questa Sancte Marie. In 1793, the chapel was seized and sold by the revolutionaries. The Grimaudois bought it and return it to the town who still owns it to this day. Every August 16th, one can see the pilgrimage to the chapel. The statue of Our Lady of the Quest is in the Saint-Michel church in the village. Inside the chapel is: the Assumption altarpiece of the Virgin and the Annunciation dated 1677, three busts reliquaries including that of Saint Lambert, tables of St. Jacques de Compostela and St. Lambert Eloi and the Donation of the Holy Rosary. In 2002, restoration of the facades and roof are made and new windows are created by Ms. Coline Fabre, master glassmaker, a member of an old family grimaudoise. The park is home to the chapel of beautiful trees of at least 200 years and a source associated with the cult of St. Lambert, whose water cures skin diseases and eye.

Construction of the sixteenth century an ingenious gravity system which allowed the collection of water 3 km into the hillside, the Bridge of the Fairies by its very name can illustrate the "magic" of the process.
