General presentation
CABRIS, located on its rock like a sentry between sea and mountains at 1650 feet high, offers from its promontory one of the most magnificent landscape of the Cote d'Azu". To the Eastward, the Cap Ferrat close the circle of the sea, and the hinterland of Nice rises its mountains until the snowy tops of the near Alpes. Then comes Antibes with the Garoupe lighthouse and the woodland of Valbonne. Next the look comes up to Cannes with its necklace of nocturnal pearls, and by day, Sainte Marguerite and Saint Honorat islands laid on the blue sea.

In the village, let's go and begin the sightseeing with the Saint Sébastien Chapel, built in the middle of the 16th century, down the castle walls. Its was for a long time the White Penitents seat, some of them are buried under the pavement. The Cabris lord, Alexandre de Grasse, welcomed there in 1638, Mgr Godeau, bishop of Grasse, founder of the French Academy, who was one of the French Church Glory during the 17th century.
