7 reviews of Jardins de la Fontaine

A reflection of life in Provence

The Ancient Romans chose to put a colony here, at the foot of the hills close to the pure, crystalline water of the Nemausa. Today, the ancient source of water flows through the Jardins de la Fontaine to reach the springs of the same name. Fontaine is a charming spot where you can experience the Provencal lifestyle, where people come to refresh and relax during the hot Mediterranean summers. A great place for locals and visitors alike.
