Montmorin is a pretty perched village, built in tiers on the foothills of the Duffre mountain. Beautiful stones adorn its facades.

The medieval village of Rosans reveals beautiful ocher-colored stones and old Roman tile roofs. Entrance into the village is under an arched door. You discover its impressive square tower. Built in the 13th century in stones cut into diamond points, it is still in perfect state of conservation.
