This year, the magnificent city of Saint-Émilion, perched in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards, is celebrating 20 years since its inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. An ideal opportunity for motorhome travelers to rediscover this iconic destination in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, with its culture, history and tastings.
Classified as a "cultural landscape" since 1999 (celebration postponed to 2025), Saint-Émilion is an architectural gem where paved streets, blonde stone houses and medieval monuments tell a thousand-year-old story. Around the city, the vineyards stretch their rows of vines over gentle hills, creating a harmonious and preserved landscape.
To mark this anniversary, numerous events will liven up the year 2025: exhibitions, shows, guided tours, tastings and wine tourism tours.
