Briançonnet
Briançonnet is an enchanting village in the Alpes-Maritimes set in magnificent natural surroundings. You can see the peaks of the Mercantour clearly in the distance.
Strolling along its cobbled and sloping streets, arranged in a checkerboard pattern, as was typical with Roman planning, you can admire handsome stone houses, vaulted passageways, and doorways with sculpted lintels.
This former Roman city has many vestiges of that era (sarcophagus, cippus, stele, boundary markers) and lies beneath the ruins of a feudal castle. A short uphill walk to the site will offer you an extraordinary panorama of the dramatic environs.
