France: St. Rémy-de-Provence
Van Gogh’s Other Town
Vincen Van Gogh was institutionalized at the town’s asylum here in the late 19th Century, and painted several of his most famed works here. Centuries earlier, this was also the hometown of the seer Nostradamus and the seat of the de Sade family.
A perfect little Provençal town
Located on a bluff above the Rhône, surrounded by fields of brillliant flowers.
