Old Vers Station

Highlight • Restaurant

Along the greenway that follows the old railway line, you can't miss this very pleasant spot. There is another train station converted into a bistro. You will find it near Uzès, on the same cycle path. One thing is certain: even if it can get very hot, you won't die of thirst!

Please note: Private property and not accessible, even if this area undoubtedly deserves to be accessible to as many people as possible!
A magnificent, astonishing place full of History (the great one) and stories, this building built in the 13th century offers more than 560 square meters of living space (partly decorated by interior designer Dick Dumas), a park of two hectares, a large pond, a caretaker's house and outbuildings. It became the property of the Baron of Castile in the 18th century who breathed new life into it with superb Italian-inspired decorations and colonnades.
In 1950 the estate became the property of the legendary British art historian and collector Douglas Cooper, whose close friends included Braque, Léger, Klee, Staël and Picasso. The latter frequented the property assiduously and tried, in vain, to convince Douglas Cooper to sell it to him in 1958. Failing that, he convinced his friend to "give him a wall" for the creation of several murals (engravings on concrete), including one inspired by Manet's "Lunch on the Grass" and another by David's "The Abduction of the Sabines". These frescoes still exist, in very good condition and are classified as Historic Monuments. Very few people have had the chance to see them, like the rest of the castle. There are several videos (made a few years ago when the domain was put up for sale) on the Internet which allow you to appreciate the beauty and richness of this extraordinary site.

Uzès - Saint-Théodorit Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

Saint-Théodorit Cathedral, located in the commune of Uzès, in the Gard, dates from the end of the 11th century. Listed as a Historic Monument for its bell tower and Fenestrelle tower, it was the seat of the former bishopric of Uzès until the French Revolution.

Originally built in a Romanesque style, the Saint-Théodorit cathedral was rebuilt in the late twelfth century after the Albigensian Crusade, then in the second half of the sixteenth century. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, it suffered total destruction with the arrival of the wars of religion.

Uzès

Highlight • Settlement

The Place aux Herbes is the nerve center where all the life of the beautiful city of Uzès is concentrated. The gigantic plane trees that offer saving shade, the magnificent Art Nouveau-inspired fountain in its center, and the wide arcades filled with restaurants, ice cream parlors, and shops. Everything invites you to take a refreshing break here.

Old station

Highlight • Cycleway

It's nice when there is a sensible reuse of old train stations. Especially if they are on railway line cycle paths.

September 11, 2023,Nochmal nach Uzés zur Stadtbesichtigung, am Markttag war es nicht möglich
The cycle path leads over the Pont du Gard and back onto the former railway line.
The town of Uzés with its castle, towers, winding streets and secluded squares is beautiful and highly recommended for a visit

Once again, we follow a former railway line, crossing the Pont du Gard and passing old train stations to the market in Uzès.
The atmosphere under the large plane trees, the colors of the fruits and spices, the crowded cafés—all this is what makes the South of France so special.
We keep coming back.

The route runs z. T. on an old railway line that has been converted into the perfect cycle path. The former train stations are now restaurants.
The market is beautiful, but extremely crowded. The narrow streets are too narrow for the crowds. We were too late because in the morning I had to go to a bike shop 10km away …
