This fountain is located in a station of Saint-Pierre pilgrimage and thus allowed pilgrims to drink fresh water. It was moved, hence its recent appearance, and now benefits from a new catchment basin.

The parish church of Sainte-Anne is a religious building built in the 19th century (1830).

This square bell tower church has a flamboyant gothic style portal. It was restored in its time by the association Montagn'Arts. You can particularly admire Cross path, the work of Jean Brandy, a painter who lived part of his life in Saint-Auban. "Only a major cause (death) will prevent me from painting."

This cow wheat is very recognizable with its beautiful purple and yellow inflorescence. It is quite rare and grows in fields and wasteland of a few very sunny areas of the department. Its fruit contains two large poisonous seeds (poisonous aucubin in large quantities).

During the first ascent and leaning against the Tracastel bar, you will see the roofs of this particular village. In the Middle Ages, it is said that Saint-Auban is called "Puget de Mallemort". It seems that at the time, people sentenced to death were pushed from these cliffs...

The Tracastel door and the remains of a tower are what remains of ancient fortifications protecting a castle now disappeared. Clinging to a rocky bar, overlooking the village, it is the ultimate testimony of the medieval past of Saint-Auban. It was restored in 2007.

It is one of the most visited sites of the Préalpes d'Azur Regional Natural Park. It is an exceptional geological formation, with striking views of the Esteron. The place has an ear, referring to a large balsam on the Esteron. It served as a habitat, and excavations revealed fragments of ceramics from the late Bronze Age.

This clue represents a cut between two mountains, it is the paradise of the canyonists who rub shoulders with these limestone cliffs and cold water pots of the Esteron. During refreshing "supervised" descents, the practitioners combine the fun and the pleasure of discovery.

From the ruins of the hamlet of Ville, you have magnificent views of the valley and the village, with its cultures, dense forests, and the mountains in the distance.

The town chapel is the former parish church of Saint-Pons Peyroules.
