Provence-Alpes-C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur. Briancon is the highest city in France at 1,326 metres (4,350 feet). If you park at the top of the Brian\u00e7on, you can enter the fortified town through one of two drawbridges and explore the town from the top down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The historical centre is a strongly fortified town, built by\u00a0<a class=\"mw-redirect\" title=\"Vauban\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vauban\">Vauban<\/a>\u00a0to defend the region from\u00a0<a title=\"Austrians\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Austrians\">Austrians<\/a>\u00a0in the 17th century. Its streets are very steep and narrow, though picturesque. Brian\u00e7on lies at the foot of the descent from the\u00a0<a title=\"Col de Montgen\u00e8vre\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Col_de_Montgen%C3%A8vre\">Col de Montgen\u00e8vre<\/a>, giving access to Turin, so a great number of other fortifications have been constructed on the surrounding heights, especially towards the east.
