21. Saint-Emilion

A name that inspires dreams among epicureans around the world. Nestled in the heart of the famous vineyards, this fortified stone town, built in a limestone valley, has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999.

Saint-Émilion, located 35 km north-east of Bordeaux, combines all the charms of a medieval French village: steep cobbled streets, ramparts, a Gothic church, hidden squares... But it also has a surprising underground heritage: galleries, catacombs and a monolithic church.
This is the Donjon du Roy.
A must-see if you're in the area.
