From here the street climbs up a hill and to the 17th century Tour de l’Horloge, set beside the little open air Theatre de Verdure and several olive oil mills. Draguignan is also the site of the dolmen “La Pierre de la Fee”, classed as a historical monument and dating from the Neolithic. It is a lively town, with many arts and culture events throughout the year (plays, exhibitions, cinema screenings, concerts, dance, jazz and wine festivals, singing competitions...). Activities:Cycling is a popular sport here and Draguignan was even on the 2009 Tour de France route. There are also several interesting hiking paths worth exploring and facilities for horse riding, swimming, stadiums for athletics, and clubs for martial arts, badminton, bowling, canoe-kayaking, dance, fencing and football.
