Saint-Ambroix, Medieval commune in Gard, France
Saint-Ambroix stretches along the Cèze River between limestone cliffs, with narrow streets winding through its old center and past stone buildings.
The town developed around medieval fortifications, including several castles, with the plateau du Dugas featuring a chapel built on ruins from the 17th century.
The Tuesday market tradition in Saint-Ambroix continues after 650 years, bringing together local producers and craftsmen from the Gard region.
The town serves as a central point for exploring the Cèze Valley, with direct access to hiking trails and water activities on the river.
The Guisquet Tower, constructed in the late 18th century, stands as a decorative landmark rather than a defensive structure atop the town.
