Sisteron

2-Jul-2013 • Sisteron France

Sisteron was nothing but a pit stop for us during our tour of the French Republic. Nevertheless, it was still a pretty little town with a few interesting places to visit. Foremost among its must sees for us were the citadelle high up in the mountains as well as its small 12th century cathedral.

At the time of our visit, it was reported that the town only had a population of 6,964 inhabitants.
