Roquebrune-sur-Argens

Roquebrune-sur-Argens is a commune in Provence that spreads across a large territory with three main districts: the historic village, the coastal area of Les Issambres, and the residential zone of La Bouverie. The Argens River runs through the landscape, which includes Mediterranean beaches and substantial forest coverage.

The settlement began around a fortified position called Castrum, established in 983, which gave the place strategic importance in southeastern France. This early stronghold shaped the development of the community for centuries to come.

The Maison de la Préhistoire displays objects found locally that show how people lived thousands of years ago in this region. These collections help visitors understand the deep roots of settlement here.

The area is easy to explore with three distinct zones that offer different experiences depending on whether you want to visit the village, the beach, or residential areas. Plan your route to cover the parts that interest you most, as they require separate journeys.

The territory offers a transition between coast and forest that many visitors overlook when they only explore one aspect. This variety makes it a place where you can experience both seaside and natural forest settings in one location.
