Barcelonnette is a commune located in the Ubaye Valley of the French Alps, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence department. This mountain town, founded in the 13th century, is known for its unique architectural heritage and historical connection to Mexico.
In the 19th century, many residents of Barcelonnette emigrated to Mexico for trade and business, returning with wealth that they invested in building magnificent villas, known as "Mexican villas," which still stand today. The town's cultural identity is shaped by this Mexican-French connection, visible in its architecture and celebrated in local festivals.
The town serves as a gateway to various outdoor activities in the surrounding Alps, while maintaining its historical charm through its old town center, weekly markets, and traditional Alpine culture.
