Location Summary
Follow in the footsteps of philosopher Nietzsche and step through a small door into a heavenly setting filled with the scent of jasmine, bougainvillea and roses to guide you along cool, sloping paths. Some fine houses like Le Château de la Chèvre d’Or, once home to the Riquiers family and later to Prince Wilhelm of Sweden, have been transformed into artists' studios and art galleries. It is easy to imagine the donkeys climbing up from the surrounding countryside in the last century, weighed down with figs, olives and Eze mandarin oranges. The decoration in the choir of Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption church dates back to the Baroque period and the church boasts an Egyptian cross that immerses Eze in the mysteries of the goddess Isis. At the top of the village, the exotic garden created in 1949 by Jean Gastaud adorns this gorgeous site with aloes, euphorbias and cactus.
