Villages
Lourmarin
Incredible village at the gates of the Luberon
One of the most beautiful villages in France, it is above all the place of my childhood and where I still live today.
So how can we not tell you to stop by Lourmarin to simply enjoy a moment out of time with its narrow streets and the Provençal way of life
Gordes
The Luberon lighthouse
This dry-stone village perched on its rock is also one of the most beautiful villages in France and has a centuries-old history.
Simiane-la-Rotonde
An open-air museum
The village perched on a bed of lavender is famous for its Rotunda, the circular keep of the castle that crowns the hillock on which the village spreads, a witness to a rich history.
In June and July the surrounding fields explode in a profusion of lavender.
Ansouis
A castle facing the Grand Luberon
Certainly one of the prettiest perched villages of the South Luberon. With its thousand-year-old castle, its narrow streets and typical Provencal facades and its vineyard landscapes, this village breathes Provence
Spirituality
Shrine of Our Lady of Lights
Occupied since the Mesolithic period
The sanctuary is built in a large garden with flowers and trees. On the path, a waterfall, a basin, several statues, niches dug in the rock. At the top of the path, from where the view dominates the valley, we reach the modest chapel of St. Michael, built in front of a natural balm, surrounded by ancient trees.
Abbey of Silvacane
A jewel of Cistercian art
The Abbey of Silvacane, located in the Commune of La Roque d’Anthéron, stands between the Luberon and the chaîne des Cotes on the left bank of the Durance, a communication route and transhumance path.
The chosen location is a rocky area, dominating the Durancian swamps
Saint Anne's Cathedral
The miracle of Jean Caseneuve
The Sainte-Anne cathedral is one of the oldest basilicas in Provence. In the 17th century, when the royal chapel had just been built, it had the honor of welcoming the mother of Louis XIV, Anne of Austria, who came on a pilgrimage.
