La Tour d'Aigues, un village du Luberon

La Tour d'Aigues, a village of the Luberon

La Tour d'Aigues is a pretty village at the foot of the southern Luberon, built on a hill above the small river Eze. La Tour d'Aigues houses the ruins of a magnificent Renaissance castle . The church Notre-Dame-de-Romegas with thick walls and two medieval gates mark the entrance to the old village wiith shady winding streets that keeping coolness during hot summer days.

La Tour d'Aigues

The village of La Tour d'Aigues appears in history in the 11th century under the name "Tual de Aquis", a dungeon was therefore built at this place, where you could watch the region. The village suffers from the depredations of Raymond de Turenne at the end of the 14th century religious wars in the 16th century because of the Waldensian community. Following the succession, the village belongs to Jean-Louis-Nicolas Bolliers who built (between 1550 and 1577) on the site of the medieval fortress the Château de La Tour d'Aigues , surely the most beautiful Renaissance castle the region, inspired by castles of Ile de France.

The Château de la Tour d'Aigues

La Tour d'Aigues chateau

The lordship and castle gets in the 18th century to the family of Bruni, wealthy merchants from Marseilles. The new lords are recurring conflict with the public, a first fire causes major damage to the castle in 1780. He will once again be burned during the Revolution, looted and eventually abandoned.

It remains to visitors to admire the splendid facades, gilded by the sun they have the color of good bread.The gaping windows open to the sky and pretty terraces stand above the valley through where flows the Eze, and the monumental form of a triumphal arch of the ancient Roman reminds motifs of the triumphal arch of Orange. The General Council of Vaucluse began his restoration of the castle of La Tour d'Aigues and installed in 1985 in these places two museums: a museum of pottery and a history of Pays d'Aigues museum. Many events take place every year a festival is held in the summer in the courtyard of the castle.

La Tour d'Aigues

La tour d'aigues holds its summer festival at the château.

vrm la tour d'aigues

Capital of the Pays d’Aigues, La Tour d'Aigues is situated between the southern Luberon and the Durance. Surrounded by hills, the village itself culminates at 270 metres altitude, high enough to fully appreciate the surrounding landscapes.

The plains at the foot of the village, where farms and vineyards lie harmoniously side by side, contribute to the area's flourishing activity.

In summer, the wine cooperative of La Tour d'Aigues organises picnics in the vineyards and an introduction to wine tasting of the Luberon wines (reservations on 04 90 07 51 65).

One of the village's inspiring stories concerns the Renaissance Château. Renovated in the 16th and 17th centuries, it was later destroyed by an accidental fire, then once again during the French Revolution before being abandoned and used as a quarry.

In the 1980s, upon the initiative of the General Council, it arose from the dust. Around the same time, an association was created and breathed a new and cultural life into it. For over twenty years now, it has been hosting the Jazz Festival (organised by the AJMI) and today welcomes eclectic artists during the Summer Festival of La Tour, which begins in early July and lasts until mid-August.

The Château also houses the Faïence Museum and has an exhibition space with a year-round programme. Keep an eye out for more to come...

Geographical information

Nearest cities & towns, things to see and do.

The castle of La Tour d'Aigues: A masterpiece of the Renaissance in Provence , Château de La Tour d'Aigues is located at the foot of the Luberon Mountains. Unfortunately burned in 1780 and then in 1792, he left us as remains in ruins. There are now only a few facades and basements (nearly 1000 m² rehabilitated). The facades are beautiful to see, despite the absence of real castle. His plans inspired the largest castles of de-France Island (The Louvre, Ecouen, Anet) and the elegant proportions of its facades are worth a close look.

The rue des Grands Fours: Old portal walls, open to facilitate the flow. On the right, to see a door surmounted balustrades recovered from the ruins of the castle after the Revolution (1792). The monument is abandoned, it serves as a career to villagers.

City Hall: The entry consists of a large arch leads to a closed yard is a former convent located inside of a prior serving as a housing for 5 canons. The priory was sold as national property in 1791, date installed City Hall. Today, all the buildings are used by the city and right side for housing the priest left. Formerly, the church and priory were out of town, expansion of it has embraced them.

The Notre Dame Romegas: Romegas comes from the Latin "dock" meaning "invasive herb." Mentioned since 1096 in texts, nothing remains of that era. The choir of the church, part reserved for clergy, is oriented to the east in the direction of Jerusalem. The 3 windows represent the symbol of the Trinity. Special feature: the apparent liter (black mark on the walls of the nave), was painted in the death of one of La Tour-d'Aigues lords to express the grief of the village. It is very rare to find yet visible. In the first southern chapel dating from the thirteenth century, it is made in the early sixteenth century a group carved in stone: "entombment". Most of the furniture (wooden statues, paintings, chair..) dates from the seventeenth century, as the sacristy. The pyramidion was restored in 2014 on plans and methods of original buildings installed by carpenters companions in the village.

Place Church: This is the site of the old village cemetery. Located at the time outside the walls and located south of the church. Head to the street of Aeolus, the end of the square, opposite the church.

The entrance to the Old Village: This part of town already existed in the Middle Ages. The houses were built on the right as a line of walls that demarcated the city.

The street of Aeolus: "Aeolus" refers to the Greek god of the wind. This name seems logical since it is a windy street (portal circular walls and infiltration of the wind). But this is a distortion of the Provencal word "Oulo" pots meaning, because we are actually in the old street of pottery workshops.

The door Remparts: Limits of the village until the fourteenth century when the expansion begins outside the walls. The door is in poor condition but still distinguishes the traces of the original grilles. Down the street Breach.

Stairs: They date from the Middle Ages and gave access to the house. Below, the stables for animals (1 or 2 goat, donkey, no more). Take Rue des Grands Fours (on the left).

Oratories: Niche welcoming a statuette of a religious figure. often located at the corner of two passages to protect both (against pestilence, epidemics and other disasters...). These niches, or their statues, were largely damaged and / or stolen at the time of the Revolution.

The mullioned windows: Large windows cut into 4 or 2 because the time technology did not allow to create large windows or windows for the wealthy. Openings were often sealed by the skins of beasts greased laid on chassis fitted with oiled paper for the poorest. They date from the sixteenth century: late Middle Ages and early Renaissance (Renaissance = search light).

At the first intersection, look to your right.

The street Portal Romieu: Street going down, always so often frozen darkness and slippery in winter called "street Rompe Cue" (ass break the street). Also called Street of the portal because it overlooks an ancient gateway in the ramparts (now destroyed).

Take the Old Castle Street.

The core 1 Village housed the 1st castle, called "Tour de Beranger" the eleventh century (wooden construction). Perhaps he confined to a tower? The buildings are rounded because they followed the fortifications and the shape of the rock (better visibility and easier to defend). The walls disappeared for 2 reasons: expansions and the appearance of large firearms (guns...). The walls were no longer enough. The first village occupied an advantageous position, overlooking the valley of the Eze west and placed on a natural barrier (cliff), giving excellent visibility for monitoring. The new and current castle dates from the thirteenth century built around a square tower called Roman but probably turn passing for payment of the grant (contribution collected by the city to the import of goods).

Take rue de la Chapelle.

The old chapel of Penitents: It housed the White Penitents (brotherhood created by Henry III in 1585, also called "white-beaten" because they struck with humility, self-flagellation). The penitents were religious and lay men and women, and had intended to organize good works. They shared actions to care for the poor, the sick, prisoners... The chapel was destroyed in the eighteenth-nineteenth century because it was unoccupied and fell into ruins.

The beautiful facade: Beautiful facade with beautiful ornaments. House belonging to a family of good Aix nobility of the Estière of Bourgais. To see the other side of the facade, on the Castle Square.

The portal Burliaire: No one knows the exact meaning of the name, only assumptions exist related perhaps to the games that took place on the Palace Square, the term Bourlerie means "play the ball" at the time medieval.

The other front side: No ornament on the magnificent façade of this house, because the lord who held the castle at the time (family Lesdiguieres) in prohibited construction in front of the castle not to compete with ornaments its beautiful entrance gate. Constrained by this request, the house is decorated on the other side.

Events and festivities

La Tour-d'Aigues Pottery Market: early May in partnership with the Terres de Provence association, the Tour-d'Aigues town hall and the General Council of Vaucluse .

Many activities that will be offered throughout the day in a festive atmosphere: the unmissable earth workshop for children, the sale of solidarity bowls, the lottery to elect the most beautiful stand (2 draws during the day).
