  • Some distance away from the town Castle stands alone. From the 15th century was built in the 16th century it seems. You can see residents were using at the time, and you can see inside of ornate furniture and unusual musical instruments. From the terrace in the Garden City of Lourmarin looks well.

  • The Château of Lourmarin is worth the detour with its olive grove more of 200 olive trees, a temporary exhibition, walls and rooms full of history...

  • Simple, pretty setting. You really want it to me more historical. That's the feeling you get. It is historical and if you knew more about the salt trade and the importance of the pass his town guarded it would help. We visited this place quite a bit and walked and ran through the the gardens.
  • Really interesting place and history, the view is amazing and the visit is worth it! If you are around, definitely a place to visit!
  • Very simple but beautiful. Worth visit to the town.
  • Beautiful surrounding. A nice and relaxing place to take a walk
  • Be carefull. At parking near the chateau theft from car is usual. 18 september 2014 somebody has stollen all luggage, passports, macbook from car.
