- La Côte d'Azur : le soleil, la mer et la montagne Où découvre - t - on la Côte d'Azur en arrivant d'Italie pour se rendre à Compostelle ? - À Menton , première ville de la Riviera française. Où démarre le Chemin de S aint - Jacques, passées les Balsi Rossi italiennes ? - À Menton , étape de départ du Chemin de Saint - Jacques et de Rome (Via Aurelia, GR 653 A) face à la mer, devant une chapelle… dédiée à Saint - Jacques. Où quitte - t - on les Alpes - Maritimes , à l'autre bout du département ? - À Théoule - sur - Mer , dernière ville côtière des Alpes - Maritimes et ultime étape du Chemin de Saint - Jacques dans le département. Menton et Théoule : - deux perles naturelles et touristiques de la Côte d'Azur ; - situées aux deux extrémités du département ; - s eules villes côtières des Alpes - Maritimes d'où les pèlerins de Compostelle et de Rome peuvent admirer la mer. - Peut - être la dernière fois, avant la Galice, où le pèlerin pourra s'y baigner ! La mer La Côte d'Azur, c'est d'abord la mer. Dans les Alpes - Maritimes, l e long ruban que constitue le Chemin de Saint - Jacques et de Rome , dans sa version moderne, ne "tangente" réellement la mer qu'à la frontière franco - italienne – Menton / Roquebrune - Cap - Martin – e t à celle séparant le département et c elui du Var à Mandelieu - la Napoule et Théoule - sur - Mer . Les territoires de Menton et de Roquebrune - Cap - Martin, anciennes cités appartenant à la Principauté de Monaco , cédées à la France en 1860, ouvrent le Chemin de Saint - Jacques dans sa partie française. 5 Passage obligé des Balzi Rossi Derniers hectomètres avant la frontière française du Chemin italien de Rome à Compostelle Les falaises de Balzi Rossi (les Rochers Rouges ou "Baoussé Roussé" ) constituent un obstacle redoutable pour la voie côtière joignant Vintimille et Menton, réduite le plus souvent à une piste étroite jusqu'au torrent Saint - Louis qui marque actuellement la frontière entre l'Italie et la France. Ce chemin, qui a peu changé depuis l'antique voie romaine, traverse toujours le jardin botanique Hanbury, situé au Cap Mortola, tout près du Pont Saint - Louis (frontière). La voie courait à flanc de coteau entre les rochers du bord de mer et la route actuelle, dite "Napoléon" . Ell e franchissait les Baoussé Roussé en corniche abrupte sur la pente très rapide de la Mortola, et dominait la mer d'une trentaine de mètres. En cet endroit, la voie Julia Augusta (A urelia ) n'était pavée nulle part et n'excédait jamais 2 m de largeur (parfoi s moins d'un mètre) ; elle n'était alors qu'une simple entaille horizontale sur l'inclinaison du sol raviné et ne pouvait recevoir d'autres réparations que le piétinement des usagers. Ce passage, à la réputation peu enviable au cours des siècles, ne fut ré ellement amélioré qu'au cours du XVIII e siècle avec la construction de ponts en maçonnerie. Le site des Balzi Rossi ne fut vraiment bouleversé qu'avec la construction d'une route à la fin du XIX e s.

  • Cycling on the Coastal Road, from Nice to Genoa Cycling
    SLOWAYS SRL - EMAIL: [email protected] - TELEPHONE +39 055 2340736 - WWW.SLOWAYS.EU CYCLING type : Self-Guided level : duration : 8 days period: Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct code: ITSB190 Cycling on the Coastal Road, from Nice to Genoa - Italy 8 days, price from € 1120 The right trip for those who dream of living all year round at the seaside: you will travel in the sunshine of the Riviera Ligure, through coastal villages where at every turn you will be able to answer the call of the sea: the clear water and Mediterranean climate will let you enjoy a bathe well into autumn. The sea breeze and the smell of the sea will accompany your bicycle along the flat coasts and cycle paths made along the tracks of old railway lines, with some differences in altitude to avoid the busier roads. From the charm of the Cote d’Azur you will arrive at the narrow alleyways of villages beside the sea, following ancient Roman roads perched above the sea and paths surrounded by olive groves, until you reach the charming old districts of Genoa. Without forgetting the joys of the palate: you will enjoy fish just fished from the sea and accompanied by km zero oil, fragrant Ligurian focaccias and pasta with pesto alla genovese, and you will understand why Mediterranean cuisine is one of the most famous in the world. The tips of Valentina: Enjoy a ratatouille niçoise sitting at a table in Place Rossetti, in the heart of the old town of Nice; You will get lost in the “carrugi” (alleyways) of Parasio, the old district of Porto Maurizio, allowing yourselves to be surprised by the sudden views over the sea through the red houses; Enjoy a bathe in the clear waters of the Costa dei Saraceni, at Finale Ligure; Walk along the quay in the old port of Genoa, admiring the town from the benches of Calata Gadda.

  • Au Professeur Pascal Arnaud, Pour Son Soixantième Anniversaire Et Départ À La Retraite
    AU PROFESSEUR PASCAL ARNAUD, POUR SON SOIXANTIÈME ANNIVERSAIRE ET DÉPART À LA RETRAITE «Mais vous savez, il y a une autre forme de frontière que l’on oublie souvent, c’est la mer.» Il marque une pause. Je hausse un sourcil. Dans son minuscule bureau lyonnais de la Maison de l’Orient et de la Méditerranée et en quelques phrases qu’il paraissait improviser sur le ton d’une suggestion faussement anodine, Pascal Arnaud venait de m’ouvrir un champ de recherche qu’il connaissait par cœur et de me lancer sur des routes qu’il sillonnait depuis longtemps déjà. Les routes, toujours. Maître de conférences pendant sept années à Bordeaux, Pascal Arnaud ac- complit la plus grande partie de sa carrière universitaire à Nice, port d’attache le plus ferme de son itinéraire d’historien, petite fondation massaliote devenue ville romaine aux confins de l’Italie, cité qui, comme lui, a la mer pour ligne d’horizon. Professeur d’histoire du monde romain à l’Université de Nice Sophia Antipolis à partir de 1992, à la tête de plusieurs chantiers de fouilles sur le territoire des Al- pes-Maritimes, il s’investit pleinement dans la vie administrative et l’organisation de l’enseignement et de la recherche. Vice-président de l’université, il est aussi au centre de la création à Nice de la Maison des Sciences de l’Homme qu’il dirige de 2002 à 2010. Laissant un temps les côtes de l’antique Narbonnaise, Pascal Arnaud remonte le Rhône jusqu’à Lyon où il enseigne l’histoire du monde romain à l’Université Lumière depuis 2010.

  • PER ASPERA AD... HASTA Arenzano Ai Tempi Di Nazario E Celso
    COMUNE DI ARENZANO ASSESSORATO ALLA CULTURA PER ASPERA AD... HASTA Arenzano ai tempi di Nazario e Celso REALIZZAZIONE DEL Servizio studi, ricerca e memoria storica www.arenzanotracieloemare.it uesto volumetto, doveroso seguito all’interessante mostra che ha avuto luogo nell’Oratorio Q di Santa Chiara nell’estate 2007, è una straordinaria incursione nella storia delle origini di Arenzano. Scorrendo questo catalogo, reso necessario dalle richieste del pubblico e dalle successive esposizioni, ci troviamo di fronte ad una ricerca interessantissima suffragata da importanti dati storici e, dove questi mancano, da ipotesi non meno valide o interessanti. La Liguria tutta (come dimostrano tanti ritrovamenti archeologici sul territorio) è stata culla di civiltà fin dalla preistoria e della dominazione romana rimangono copiose testimonianze. L’area di Arenzano è stata forse trascurata sotto questo aspetto, ma il nostro augurio è che queste ipotesi, proposte in scritti ed immagini, possano servire da stimolo per l’avvio o l’incremento di studi più approfonditi e di una discussione, perché no, anche critica, ma che consenta di dare una visione più ampia e globale del patrimonio storico della nostra città. Ringrazio dunque il Servizio Studi, Ricerca e Memoria Storica della Parrocchia di Arenzano che con il lavoro instancabile e soprattutto ricco di entusiasmo, permette a cittadini, turisti e semplici curiosi di percorrere nuove e interessanti strade per la conoscenza della nostra Arenzano. Da arenzanese di adozione mi permetto con orgoglio di ribadire nostra, e con questo sottolineare la vocazione di accoglienza che la città ha sempre avuto nei secoli. Il motto sul nostro stemma recita: “Hic manebimus optime” (Qui staremo benissimo); il passato raccontato nelle pagine che seguono ed il presente da me e da tanti altri vissuto, testimoniano questa affermazione, che rimane di buon auspicio per i tempi a venire.
