The magnificent city of Avignon is only about 70km from Lourmarin.

Better still, spend a day here and discover its rich and fascinating history.
Explore the ramparts of its incredibly well preserved city wall,
built in 1403, which like a ribbon round a cake, still circles the town today.

Les Palais des Papes.

not forgetting to dance on its famous bridge,
Pont d'Avignon, over the mighty Rhône River,
