The city of Saint-Raphaël is a renowned French coastal town in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, characterized by its rich history, architectural heritage, and tourist significance. As a formerly small fishing village, Saint-Raphaël has developed into a popular seaside resort and vacation destination on the Côte d’Azur since 1864, which triggered a dynamic urban and cultural development.
Saint-Raphaël stretches over 36 kilometers of coastline between the Massif de l'Estérel and the Mediterranean Sea, offering a varied landscape of bays, beaches, and rocky coastline. The city is known for its good sense of hospitality, which has been cultivated since the 19th century, and is characterized by a variety of distinctive neighborhoods, including the old town with its narrow, shady alley structure, the urban center directly by the sea, as well as historical and near-natural districts such as Valescure, Boulouris, Le Dramont, Agay, Anthéor and Le Trayas[5].
A central component of the identity of Saint-Raphaël is the preservation and enhancement of its belle époque architectural heritage, especially the magnificent villas from this era. The city and the local association “Villas Belle Epoque” are heavily involved in protecting these unique architectural monuments, which reflect the cultural and art-historical significance of the region. This commitment to preserving the architectural heritage is part of a broader mission to sustainably preserve and make the historical, artisanal, cultural, natural and industrial heritage accessible[1][4].
In the course of urban renewal and sustainable development, Saint-Raphaël is pursuing a holistic approach that skillfully combines economic, tourist and ecological goals. The redesign of the city center and the waterfront promenade places particular emphasis on improving the quality of urban life through more quality of stay, the promotion of gentle mobility - such as new cycle paths and increased public transport - as well as the reduction of car traffic. This takes up the strategy of sustainable growth and habitat conservation, which at the same time strengthens the economic and tourist attractiveness of the city[2]. This promotes a harmonious interaction between the historical charm and the modern requirements of the 21st century.
Saint-Raphaël is also characterized by a diverse social and cultural commitment, is home to numerous social and medical facilities as well as active associations and organizations that enrich social life and strengthen cohesion[3].
In summary, Saint-Raphaël is a city that combines tradition and modernity by preserving its rich cultural heritage, sustainably developing its urban infrastructure and positioning itself as a hospitable, vibrant travel destination on the French Riviera. Sustainable urban development, including the protection of building and cultural heritage as well as the promotion of environmentally friendly mobility, is at the heart of its mission to ensure quality of life and tourist success in the future.
