History
History
• Illustration — The Hôtel de Ville The name derives from the town's ancient origins, meaning "The Guard". It is mentioned in 1056, when its castle was a fief of the Bishops of Toulon; they kept it until the 13th century, when it was handed over to the Castellanes, then the lords of Glandevès and the Thomas. Today only a tower and the chapel remain of the castle. La Garde was repeatedly invaded during the French Wars of Religion. In 1707 it was sacked by Savoyard troops. The Hôtel de Ville was completed in 1884.
