Mougins

Guided Tour of the old village of MOUGINS, which, from the top of its peak extends spiral like a snail, with its 19 fountains, its ancestral lanes and dominates the panorama of the bay of Cannes, the Lerins Islands, Grasse and neighboring villages perched. As soon as you arrive in the village, you will succumb to the charm of its small, carefully flowered streets lined with beautiful old village houses. Beautiful doors, stones restored with taste, windows cleverly highlighted … wherever your gaze will be, the wonder of detail will follow! The imprint of the past subtly preserved, the harmony of colors and the quality of light have attracted many artists and celebrities who chose to stay in Mougins, including Picasso (who spent the last 15 years of his life), Cocteau, Fernand Léger, Paul Eluard, Man Ray, Winston Churchill, Christian Dior, Catherine Deneuve, Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel … among others. Mougins has always had close links with the artistic and cultural world.
