Notre-Dame-des-Pommiers Cathedral in Sisteron is a true architectural marvel and an essential stopover when visiting this charming Provençal town. As soon as you enter, you are struck by the serenity that emanates from this majestic building, with its imposing vaults and finely sculpted details. The light penetrating through the stained glass windows creates a calming atmosphere, inviting contemplation and meditation. What makes this cathedral particularly unique is its rich history and deep connection to the region. You feel a real step back in time as you walk through its naves, silent witnesses to centuries of faith and devotion. The frescoes and interior decorations are remarkably preserved, providing a fascinating insight into religious art through the ages. Finally, a visit to Notre-Dame-des-Pommiers is both a cultural and spiritual experience, ideal for lovers of history, art, or simply those looking for a moment of calm and beauty. A visit not to be missed during your visit to Provence!

It gets one star because it was closed at 5.30 when it should have been open until 6 according to its timetable.

Celje Castle

Celje Castle was once the largest fortification on Slovenian territory. The first fortified building on the site (a Romanesque palace) was built in the first half of the 13th century by the Counts of Heunburg from Carinthia on the stony outcrop on the western side of the ridge where the castle stands. It had five sides, or four plus the southern side, which was a natural defence. The first written records of the castle date back to between 1125 and 1137; it was probably built by Count Gunter. In the western section of the castle, there was a building with several floors. Remains of the walls of this palatium have survived. In the eastern section, there was an enclosed courtyard with large water reservoirs. The eastern wall, which protects the castle from its most exposed side, was around three metres thicker than the rest of the curtain wall. The wall was topped with a parapet and protected walkway.
