Photo - Mandelieu-la-Napoule, perched on the edge of the Mediterranean just southwest of Cannes, the Château de la Napoule is a striking 14th-century fortress in the seaside resort of Mandelieu-la-Napoule. Restored in the early 20th century by American artists Henry and Marie Clews, the castle blends medieval architecture with artistic flair. Today, it’s open to the public, offering art exhibitions, lush gardens, and sea views — a must-see gem along the French Riviera. Fascinating fact: Henry Clews Jr. believed in reincarnation and designed parts of the castle as a "monument to eternity," even carving secret messages and symbols into its walls that remain hidden throughout the grounds.
