A French king got married here in 1660 and immediately had the church door bricked up — this town has been surprising people ever since.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Saint-Jean-de-Luz's old quarter on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Follow clues to the Maison Louis XIV, Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste, and Promenade Jacques Thibaud — three landmarks that pack more history than the town's size suggests
• Start whenever suits you and take all the time you need — no time limit, no pressure
• Works for families, couples, and friend groups; photo challenges along the seafront add a fun competitive edge
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in English, French, and Italian.
The royal wedding door is still bricked shut — your phone knows why.
