Colline Saint Eutrope, Archaeological site and historic monument on Saint Eutrope hill in Orange, France.

The hill reaches 105 meters in height and contains ancient walls, storage areas, bastions, and remnants of fortification structures from multiple periods.

The site underwent transformation in the 1620s when Maurice of Nassau ordered construction of a modern fortress incorporating the medieval keep and eleven bastions.

The hill forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage site that includes the Roman Theatre and the Triumphal Arch of Orange.

The location features municipal facilities, including walkways, panoramic viewing areas, and access paths leading to archaeological remains.

Queen Juliana of the Netherlands planted an oak tree on this hill in 1952, marking the connection between Orange and Dutch heritage.
