More about the history of the building...

This unique building was originally the presbytery of the 14th-century church, once home to the parish priest. At the top of the spiral staircase, there is the original bell tower, which would have featured a decorative metal frame and a bell used to call parishioners to worship and mark time for the village.

The bell tower predates the church spire, which was donated by the Popes during the Avignon Papacy—a time when this region held great religious and political importance. These papal contributions highlight the historic connection between Saint-Rémy and the Papal seat in Avignon.

Today, the building has been thoughtfully renovated into two charming apartments, preserving the original architectural details while adding modern comfort. Guests renting the penthouse apartment (or "Alchemy" which is both the ground floor and penthouse apartments together - 5 bed/5 bath) have exclusive access to the bell tower rooftop terrace, a magical spot to watch the sunset and soak in panoramic views of the town.

In the ground floor apartment you'll find the 14th-century well, no longer in use but beautifully preserved as a decorative tribute to the building’s long and storied past.

It’s truly a one-of-a-kind place to stay—steeped in history, full of character, and perfectly located in the heart of St Rémy.

Hope to see you here soon!
