Terraces and Louis IX statue in Aigues-Mortes, France #80196790
Description

Aigues-Mortes is a french town whose medieval centre is enclosed within rectangular ramparts, complete with circular towers and gateways. In 1240, Louis IX, who wanted to get rid of the influence of the Italian navy for transporting troops to the Crusades, focused on the strategic position of his kingdom. He obtained the town and the surrounding lands by exchange of properties with the monks of the abbey. Aigues-Mortes was the city from which Louis IX twice departed for the Crusades: the Seventh Crusade in 1248 and again for the Eighth Crusade in 1270 for Tunis where he died of dysentery.
