Viviers est une cité de l'ardéche méridionale et la capitale historique du Vivarais auquel elle a donné son nom.
Nous découvrons dans cette vidéo l'important patrimoine d'un village médiéval témoin d'une grande activité religieuse et commerciale dans la cité dès le IIIe siècle de notre ère.
Viviers is located in the southern-central part of the Ardeche department, a few kilometres south of Montelimar. It is a town that creates mixed impressions, with several very interesting highlights to discover . A town waiting to be discovered and improved perhaps.Dating from the 12th century to the 18th century the cathedral has some very fine features including its belltower and campanile, and the tapestries inside around the stalls are also impressive.
There is quite an extensive warren of narrow streets around the cathedral with buildings that are sometimes very carefully renovated, other times rather derelict looking. All are interesting to explore, and a marked walk can be followed.
In the heart of the old town there is a particularly impressive 16th century renaissance building called the House of the Chevaliers, with a great deal of fine carving and ornamentation on the facade.
One feature I enjoyed is seeing a few houses painted in the faded pastel colours that we associate with Provence and are less common in the northern Ardeche - making you feel that you have arrived in the south of France!
