![Saint-Tropez (pronounced [sɛ̃ tʁɔ.pe]) is a French commune located in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, capital of the canton of Saint-Tropez.\n\nFrom the corsair city dominated by its 16th century citadel to the fishing village at the start of the 20th century, the first town liberated during the landings in Provence became, from the 1950s, an internationally known seaside resort on the Var Côte d'Azur thanks to the craze of New Wave artists, then yéyés and finally, a resort for the European and American jet set as well as tourists in search of Provençal authenticity or celebrities.\n\nLocation of Saint-Tropez in its peninsula.\nSaint-Tropez is located in the South-East of France, on the south-eastern coast of the Var, on the peninsula of Saint-Tropez which closes the gulf of the same name. The town is part of a crescent around the bay of Canebiers, on the entire peninsula, which can be encompassed in a rectangle of six kilometers by four.\n\nThe commune occupies an area of one thousand one hundred and eighteen hectares and its territory is almost completely occupied by properties built on large plots, giving it a relatively preserved environmental appearance. However, concentrations of constructions appear around the old village, on the coast, in particular between the capes Saint-Pierre and Saint-Tropez and between the cape Pinet and the long beach of Pampelonne. The town is integrated into the territory of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez by the general council of Var.](https://media.istockphoto.com/id/1447948307/photo/saint-tropez-is-a-french-commune-located-in-the-var-department-in-the-provence-alpes-c%C3%B4te.jpg?b=1&s=170667a&w=0&k=20&c=qIf31o6o3FBs8UUxWL82r-FeRXyxLowcwoc6X9Qc_4Y=)
