Tourist Office guides lead daily tours that explore the heritage of Saint-Paul. There are 9 themes:
If the bastian walls towers chapels and bells state the architecture of the village, other secrets remain. Well guarded within the heart of the alleyways. The stones of Saint Paul have witnessed the history of men who have changed the village and left their imprint.
Visit + Entry to local History Museum
Visiting this chapel, one discovers admirable works designed by the Belgian artist: a mosaic, stained glass windows, sculptures and paintings, all embellishing the walls and the ceiling of the chapel. One also gets to know an artist who developed a bond with Saint-Paul over thirty years. Your visit is therefore also a journey of discovery featuring the brotherhood of the Pénitents blancs of Saint-Paul; the walls that today host the works of Jean-Michel Folon housed the brotherhood for almost three centuries.
Marc Chagall lived in Saint-Paul for almost 20 years. He loved the light and the Mediterranean region. Take an old country road and admire the same landscapes that the artist would contemplate before capturing them on canvas. Discover the close links that bound Marc Chagall and Saint-Paul from 1966 to 1985.
Admire 3 works reproduced on display stands, the mosaic at Saint-Paul school, and the artist’s grave.
Saint-Paul. The land of creation. Soutine, Léger, Chagall, Calder &all created paintings and sculptures the village being their accomplice.
The Maeght Foundation holds the proof. Today other artistic names keep this unique identity associated with Saint Paul alive.

Jacques Prévert lived in Saint-Paul for several years. Meander through the village streets and discover places that conjure up the poet's memory. The walk is enhanced by readings from Prévert's works and references to his writings from his period on the French Riviera.
The thousand and one faces of the street and Saint-Paul in the Middle Ages.
Born of the faith of man and the genius of artists, the spiritual heritage of Saint-Paul is infinitely rich. The collegiate church and ancient rural chapels reveal the soul of Saint-Paul.
