Known as one of the "most beautiful villages in France," Gourdon has developed around its medieval castle, whose distinctive towers are visible from afar. The original fortress was built in the 9th century and rebuilt on the same foundations in the 12th century. Further additions followed in the 17th century. The three round towers date back to the time of the Counts of Provence. Another unique feature is the troglodytic fortress, accessible from the Plateau de Cavillore.

As early as the 16th century, the town was known for its tanning trade. Grasse offered ideal conditions for this craft, as processing animal hides into leather goods required a great deal of water. However, since the tanned gloves produced had a pungent, inherent odor, attempts were made to mask it by perfumed them. Initially, the tanners perfumed their wares themselves, but as demand grew, this sideline trade evolved into an independent profession. • Jean de Galimard, Count of Seranon, lived in Grasse, where he founded the Galimard perfumery in 1747. As the founder of the guild of "glove makers and perfumers," he supplied the court of Louis XIV, "the Beloved," with olive oil, pomades, and perfumes, for which he created the first formulas. The company remains family-owned to this day. Besides endless fields of lavender, roses, and jasmine, there were also tuberoses, mimosa, carnations, violets, and many other blossoms and herbs. The raw materials were cultivated right outside the city gates, earning Grasse the title of "fragrant city." By the end of the 16th century, people from all over Europe flocked to Grasse to practice the art of perfumery and to take advantage of the city's favorable location. Advantage through technology: At the beginning of the 17th century, Grasse's perfumers specialized in the extraction of flower essences. The development and perfection of the enfleurage technique, which continued into the 19th century, contributed significantly to the city's fame.
