Saint-Martin-Vésubie, Mountain commune in Alpes-Maritimes, France
Saint-Martin-Vésubie stands at 960 meters elevation in southeastern France, surrounded by mountains and valleys within the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
The town emerged in the 12th century with archaeological evidence showing a Romanized indigenous population settlement dating back to the 1st century.
The medieval center extends along cliffs above the Valley of the Madonna, which formerly functioned as a salt transportation route from Piedmont to Nice.
