Located between the Cévennes and the Rhône Valley, in the Gard département, Uzès is a small town of around 8,000 inhabitants that stands out for its elegance. Its history and architecture were enhanced in the 1960s under the impetus of André Malraux, the eminent writer and Minister of Culture.
Uzès has been awarded the "Ville d'Art et d'Histoire" label for its remarkable architectural heritage. Its old town, with its winding cobbled streets, exudes a captivating medieval atmosphere. The elegant facades of its 16th- and 17th-century patrician houses, its fountains and shady squares are a harmonious and bewitching sight.
Uzès has proudly held its title of the "1st Duchy of France" since 1632, thanks to the lineage of the Dukes of Uzès. Their residence, the Duchy, an imposing castle still inhabited by the noble family, sits at the heart of the town. Overlooking Saint-Théodorit cathedral, the Fenestrelle Tower adds a touch of elegance to this historic ensemble.
Every Saturday morning, the Uzès market livens up the Place aux Herbes and the surrounding streets, offering one of the most beautiful, colourful and lively markets in Provence.
The Uzège, the region around Uzès, is enchanting with its typically Mediterranean garrigue landscape. Here, olive trees and vines flourish, giving rise to the "Vin de Pays du Duché d'Uzès" appellation.
In Uzège, magnificent medieval villages such as Lussan, Castillon-du-Gard and Saint-Quentin-la-Poterie await your exploration. The latter, renowned for its ceramic arts, adds an artistic dimension to the region's cultural wealth.
You can reach the Pont du Gard by following the ruins of the ancient Roman aqueduct that harnessed the waters of the nearby River Alzon, or for the more adventurous, by canoe or kayak from the village of Collias, navigating the meandering Gardon.
