Princess Grace of Monaco tribute exposition at Baux-de-Provence, in France in 2012.
In June 1982, the people of Les Baux gave an official reception for Prince Albert of Monaco, who attended accompanied with her mother, Princess Grace, and presented him with the keys of the town. The princess would die that three months later, in September 14th, in a car accident near Monaco.
To celebrate the opening of The Princess Grace Photo Album, a group of regional dignitaries, tourism authorities, and local business owners were welcomed for a private tour and gala luncheon this summer. The guest of honor was Diane E. Kelly, the Consul General of the U.S. in Marseille and Monaco.
Apparently, the Grimaldi family back in 1642 helped Louis XIII beat off the Spanish and were rewarded with Les Baux and Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. The Grimaldis’ palace there was requisitioned during the Revolution but they have kept the titles. There’s a supplement on this, with photos and info on the life of Princess Grace, in this week’s Paris Match.

Des journées ensoleillées, des plats qui réchauffent le cœur.
Et entre deux brises vivifiantes... Une jolie visite au moulin de Daudet, à deux pas des Baux de Provence.
C'est cela notre Provence, même en saison froide !
