Local tips: train station Montélimar Gare Routière​ points of interest

Lovers of desserts, rejoice: Montélimar is most famous for its nougat -​ so famous it is even mentioned in an ode to desserts by The Beatles, "Savoy Truffle'" featured on The White Album. This nougat first gained popularity following the Second World War, when those who had tasted it during the conflict spread rumors of just how delightful it was back home. Soon, travelers visiting the glamorous French Riviera would make a trip to Montélimar on their journey home just to taste this delightful nougat for themselves. A stroll down the main street, the Rue Pierre Julien​, promises a wide variety of patisseries selling this elegant nougat. The nougat is still only made with the finest natural ingredients: only sugar, egg whites, honey, pistachio, and vanilla pod.  Travelers who want to discover more of the history of the sweet should visit Palais des Bonbons et du Nougat, a museum devoted to the nougat making of Montélimar. Inside, travelers will find displays in French and English explaining the long and illustrious history of sweet-making in the region. Zany displays include famous works of art made of sweets: even a nougat Mona Lisa!  Those who lack a sweet tooth can still enjoy the remarkable wealth of history in Montélimar. The 12th century Castle Chateau des Adhemar​ sits on a hilltop above the town and is a remarkable example of the French Gothic. The house of the former president of the French Republic Emile Loubet​ is preserved, as is a Renaissance town-house.
