Presentation

Come and discover a range of churches, chapels, oratories or megaliths through a tour highlighting their historical, cultural, spiritual or architectural interest, proposed on the territory of Méditerranée Porte des Maures.

The territory is full of real treasures, some objects even being recognised as Historic Monuments for the quality of their work.
Dedicated to numerous patron saints, these buildings have had a crucial importance in the life of rural territories as rare community spaces.
They have seen generations pass by and are true testimonies to the life of the villages of yesterday and today.
They still host many local festivities and make them a definitively living heritage.

In one go or in stages, you can easily compose your spiritual and historical journey.

Pierrefeu-du-Var
Pierrefeu's religious history dates back to 1048. The primitive parish church was the Sainte-Croix chapel which adjoined the seigniorial castle.
The church was damaged several times before it was finally destroyed and burned down along with the castle. A new church had to be found.
A chapel built by the penitents in 1550 was used as a parish.

Religious buildings to discover :
- Chapelle Sainte Croix
- Église Saint-Jacques le Majeur
- Chapelle Saint-François d'Assise

> La Londe les Maures
In the hands of the Chartreux de la Verne and other religious orders who settled in the vicinity of La Londe, the territory was developed from the Middle Ages onwards into vast agricultural estates, which were succeeded by large middle-class estates at the time of the French Revolution.
These origins explain the presence of numerous wine cellars in the commune. This religious omnipresence led to a limited population and a very scattered settlement until 1788.
The donation of a large amount of land by the Allègre family allowed the village to emerge, the oldest public building being the church, founded in 1847.

Religious buildings to discover :
- Château des Bormettes
- Hôpital des Bormettes
- Oratory of the hamlet Notre-Dame des Maures
- The Gaoutabry dolmen
- Church of La Nativité and the oratory of the presbytery
- Calvary of the Château le Pas du Cerf


> Bormes les Mimosas
Medieval churches or chapels, Château des Seigneurs de Fos, small flowery and shady streets, cuberts and small shops will be discovered as you walk along.

Chapelle Notre Dame De Constance
- Chapelle Saint-François de Paule
- Église Saint-Trophyme


> Le Lavandou
A former district of Bormes, which became independent in 1913, the village of Le Lavandou has its own religious and cultural buildings.
Some date from the 19th or 20th century, such as the Saint-Louis church or the Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation chapel; others are more recent, such as the new Saint-Clair chapel.
