Photo - Nestled at the foot of an impressive 80-meter-high cliff in the heart of Provence, Cotignac is a picturesque village that perfectly embodies the charm of southern France. Surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, and cypress trees, its narrow, winding streets are lined with stone houses, artisan shops, and shaded squares where locals gather at cafés under centuries-old plane trees. The cliff that looms above the village is not just a stunning natural backdrop but also features ancient troglodyte dwellings and chapels carved into the rock itself. In 1660, Cotignac was visited by King Louis XIV and his mother, Anne of Austria, to give thanks for his birth—believed by many to be a miraculous answer to prayers offered at the nearby Notre-Dame de Grâces sanctuary, making Cotignac a site of religious pilgrimage to this day.
