The guide of UNESCO World Heritage in France
A guide, watercolor-illustrated, with more than 300 places to discover within 33 French sites inscribed on the World Heritage List.
From the Palaeolithic age to the immediate post-war period, the French sites inscribed on the World Heritage List take us on a voyage through time and to every corner of France, from Calais to Mont Perdu.
You will journey with Roman architects, the pilgrims of Santiago de Compostela, Renaissance artists, the court of Louis XIV or along the calanches of Corsica, along tropical lagoons…
These exceptional places have one characteristic in common: they are all of recognized universal value. Monuments, architectural ensembles, testaments to an age and a particular history, cultural or natural sites – they are all part of the heritage of humanit.
