HISTORY OF VALBONNE
Valbonne is fortunate to have an old center sheltered by its old houses which have kept all its character and can be visited with delight, especially since it is perfectly restored and maintained.
Valbonne has the originality, contrary to most Provencal villages of medieval origin, of having been built according to a checkerboard urban plan (the streets intersect at right angles) which dates from the early 16th century.
It is an extremely pleasant village to visit (and no doubt to live in), where it is relaxing to stroll through the beautiful, gently sloping streets, all of which will lead you to the marvelous Renaissance arcaded square, where it is so good to have lunch on the terrace of one of the restaurants.
