Castle of Lourmarin
Tourist service in Lourmarin :
This lovely château, located in fabulous surroundings facing the village of Lourmarin, was the very first Renaissance castle built in Provence. It comprises two sections, including the old wing, built in the late 15th century by Foulques d'Agoult. Open throughout the year. Free for children under 6.
Open to visitors all year round. In summer, it becomes an artists' residence (painters, sculptors, musicians etc.), earning it the nickname "The Villa Medicis of Provence." The castle also serves as a Cultural Centre, hosting extravagant concerts in summer on the castle terraces (jazz, classical concerts and plays).
The Amis de Lourmarin Association organises conferences on various themes throughout the year. There are also numerous other celebrations including a Renaissance festival, a Spring pop and rock festival and a classical music festival in the summer as well as a variety of exhibitions.
Children's treasure hunts.
