Description : Rock headland far from 4 km of the shore, the old village of Gassin, with its tortuous alleys and its old picturesque houses, dominates a landscape of vineyards, wooded extents and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. From the medieval terrace of the "Barri" (ramparts), Gassin offers a single landscape which extends from the islands of Hyères to the snow-covered summits of the Alps while passing by the massif des Maures.
Ancien oppidum Celto Ligure, the village became starting from XIe century a religious stronghold (St. Lawrence vaults).
