THE VILLAS OF THE MEXICANS
Beautiful historic residences with Mexican architecture, witnesses to the glorious era so particular to the region.
The economy of the Ubaye Valley was for a long time based on the textile industry in Provence, Dauphiné and Piedmont... before emigrating to Mexico! In the middle of the 19th century, many entrepreneurs set up their textile shops on the other side of the Atlantic before returning "to the country" and building beautiful Mexican-style homes. These buildings are the witnesses of this glorious era. Don't miss the "Manon", "Morélia", "Javelly" and "Charmettes" villas built in the early 20th century.
