Saint Tropez, a commune in South France, is located on the French Riviera and is particularly known for its famous and wealthy guests. But before it was an exotic destination for vacationers, the town was a small port with simple roots.
Legend claims that a martyr named Saint Torpes was beheaded at Pisa during Nero’s reign. His body was set a sail in a rotten boat, along with a rooster and a dog, and it landed at the present day location of the town. Since those humble beginnings, Saint Tropez has been home to several military operations, including the Allied invasion of Southern France in 1944. It was also the summertime home-base of French existentialists.
This rich and varied history makes Saint Tropez homes some of the most alluring in Southern France. Nestled next to the water, in the lap of luxury, they’re the type of home anyone would dream of.
