What to see

South of Nîmes and at the gateway to the Camargue, the town of Saint-Gilles is full of wonders to discover!
The town, which owes its name to the famous abbot Gilles the Hermit, whose tomb it guards, was one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Christianity in the 12^th century.

The Pont du Gard, in addition to being an exceptional monument built by the Romans and recognised as a world heritage site by UNESCO, offers a superb interactive museum, numerous activities, temporary exhibitions and a magnificent sound and light show during the summer.
