Le Tour de Robion
740 m

Le Tour de Robion

Pleasant path overlooking the Verdon, then passing through the hamlet of Robion, near the chapels of Sainte Trophime and Sainte Thyrs. From Castellane, take the route de Robion (D102) behind the swimming pool. After 2km, park in the parking lot on the left. Take the footpath on the right of the road below and descend to a small stream. The path climbs a little steeply and reaches the crossroads of the path leading to the summit of Montagne de Robion. Leave this path to the left and continue straight ahead. Enjoy a magnificent view of Cadières de Brandis and the small village of Taloire. At the next crossroads, stay on the same path to reach La Colle. Turn left downhill towards Fontpuge, where you'll find a ruined house. Follow the signs to reach the hamlet of Basse de la Doux. Then make a 90° turn to reach the small village of Robion. In the village, follow the D302 in the direction of Chapelle St Thyrs. Shortly before the chapel, a track leads off to the right, avoiding the road. End up at the chapel. Turn left to reach the junction of the D302 and D102. Turn right onto a small path under the road, which leads around a bend. Cross the road, the path bends to the right and, at the exit, turn immediately left to rejoin the signposted path. Rejoin the parking lot. Below is an alternative route: Take the small bridge on your right. After the bridge, turn left onto the track that leads to the Maison du Brec. After 2 bends, the path continues straight ahead; do not turn right as this is private property. Continue north-east to the Col de Colle Meillane. Take an old, faint path on the left, which runs under the power line. Note: if it's hard to find, continue along the track, which leads you to the road to the dump near the parking lot. Overlook the gorges, but beware: there is also a somewhat aerial passage. Rejoin the track and then the route de la décharge. Turn left onto the road to reach the starting parking lot. Follow the signposts, which take you along the departmental road, not too busy with cars, but not very pleasant.

St Joseph's Church
954 m

St Joseph's Church

Saint-Joseph church belongs to the Alpes de Haute-Provence department. It was the church of the former Augustins convent. Today, it is the Collège du Verdon. The church and its cloister are not open to the public, except in exceptional circumstances. On February 15, 1281, Charles II, Count of Provence, donated a meadow to the Augustinians of Castellane to build their convent. The original building thus dates from the last years of the 13th century, but few of its features have survived to the present day. It is known, for example, that the convent suffered greatly during the Wars of Religion, and was burnt down in 1559 by the men of Antoine de Mauvans, a local gentleman who espoused the ideas of the Reformation. The church and cloister were rebuilt at the end of the 16th century by Jean Féraud, who acted as both architect and contractor. Mgr Mouchy, Bishop of Senez, had his private chapel built here. It was also at this time that the convent was enclosed within the new fortifications. The tower in its south-western corner has long borne the date 1588. The convent was bought by the commune during the French Revolution. In January 1790, the minutes of the sale of national property describe it as comprising a refectory, courtyard with well, kitchen, pantry, oven, cellar, bedrooms, dovecote, stables, hayloft, cloister wings, huts, driveway, walkway and arable land. Transformed into a college in the 19th century, it has remained a secondary school to this day. In 1875, the deteriorating church was demolished so that the main road could be widened. On February 25, 1878, the commune decided to lease the college building to the Frères de Saint-Gabriel, who were responsible for carrying out the renovation work designed by the engineer Tourniaire. A boys' elementary school was thus set up in the buildings. The work, carried out by Désiré Honnorat and François Guirand, was accepted in 1880. The elementary school did not move until after the Second World War. In 1888, in response to a complaint from parents, the commune decided to secularize teaching at the collège, which was nevertheless entrusted to the same congregation. Architecturally, the convent was originally almost square in plan. The destruction of the church did not radically alter this situation. Apart from a very recent extension housing the new refectory, the present-day college comprises the old cloister, whose trapezoidal floor plan also borders on the square, with its tiers of galleries, and the buildings bordering it to the east, west and south, including the round corner tower to the south-west of the building. This tower houses the dovecote. The north gallery of the cloister has been converted to accommodate the new documentation center. At least the northern half of the cloister's west gallery is occupied by a chapel still used for worship. On the first floor, the four cloister galleries are not identical. The east, west and south galleries are similar. However, they are not exactly the same length (between 17 and 19 m), and while each has three monolithic pillars between the two corner pillars, their spacing is slightly different. The pillars on the south gallery are the most elaborate: their corners are broken in the shape of a canelure. One of the capitals, in the shape of a machicolated tower, bears the Castellane coat of arms. All the arches supported by these pillars, composed of a single row of keystones, are slightly lowered. The north gallery, on the other hand, aligns six pillars between the corner pillars. The differences are even more marked on the second floor. The east and south elevations, as well as a small part of the west elevation, are treated as open galleries, with regular arcades rendered in thick plaster. The west and north elevations, on the other hand, lack this second gallery level, which has been replaced by classrooms. Unlike the other two, they also feature a third level. To the north of the chapel, a small square bell tower extends from a belfry wall.

St Victor's Church

St Victor's Church

Located in rue Saint Victor, in the heart of Castellane's old town center, the church of Saint Victor is an exceptional building dating back to the 13th century. Several restoration campaigns since the 1990s have restored it to its former glory. Construction of the primitive edifice dates back to the first half of the 13th century. The first element recognized by all historians is the place of construction and the owner of the land: the church was built on land donated in the 11th century to the abbey of Saint-Victor. The building's history can then be divided into two main periods: in the 15th century, a first aisle to the north was built, along with the bell tower, then in the 3rd quarter of the 18th century, the building was enlarged once again to the north with the erection of a second aisle. This Victorian priory also acquired parish status in 1260, when the parish was transferred from Saint-André to Saint-Victor. In 1442, the parish service was also transferred from Notre-Dame-du-Plan to Saint-Victor, making it Castellane's only parish church. This remained the case until the Sacré-Coeur church was built and made a parish church in 1884. In 2014, a major restoration campaign was carried out on the building. From Le Roc, the steeple of Saint Victor church seems to dominate the town. This church is a must-see.
