Whether you're a wine lover or simply seeking a peaceful getaway, Saint-Emilion promises unforgettable moments at every turn.

A Brief History

The roots of Saint-Emilion stretch back to Roman times, but its name comes from Emilion, a Benedictine monk who settled here in the 8th century. Over the centuries, the village became a spiritual and commercial hub, especially well-known for its unique underground monuments and flourishing wine trade.

Best Time to Visit

While Saint-Emilion is beautiful all year round, the best seasons to explore are spring and autumn.
