Cannes history stretches back to medieval times, and is probably best represented in its churches and old architecture. There are several old sites worth checking out –the Musée-Chapelle Bellini, which doubles as an art gallery, and the instantly recognizable Eglise Orthodoxe Russe St-Michel-Archange are prime candidates. More interesting perhaps is the Tour du Masque, an interesting tour of Sainte-Marguerite that chronicles the tale of the “Man in the Iron Mask”.
