Let us introduce you to three perched villages where autumn is even more beautiful.
Lacoste: where art flirts with history

Nestled on the Luberon plain, Lacoste offers a breathtaking view... from Mont Ventoux to the surrounding hills. Its steep, cobblestone streets exude the charm of Provence's perched villages: here, the stone houses and medieval heritage steal the spotlight from everything else.
On the cultural side, Lacoste is a little magnet for...e; artists. The Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) has set up shop here, and you can feel it: art is everywhere, even in the tiniest corners. You can also discover the castle of the Marquis de Sade (yes, the famous one) and the old stone quarries, transformed into event spaces that blend heritage and modernity. In short, Lacoste is the village that makes the hearts of beauty lovers beat faster.

Why, at 500 meters on the Vaucluse Mountains, Murs is a little gem. Here, humans have left their mark since the Paleolithic era, and you can see it in every stone, every alley. Strolling through Murs is a bit like flipping through a history book… but with a breathtaking view of the valley. Peaceful, natural, and authentic: Murs is the perfect village to slow down and soak in the sights.
Oppède: a village like a painting

Hidden in the heart of the Luberon, Oppède is a village you'd love to frame. Perched on its rocky spur, it magically blends vineyards, olive trees, and steep forests. Each alley is a journey through time, under the watchful gaze of the castle and the Notre-Dame Dalidon collegiate church.
What makes it so charming? It's the subtle marriage of ancient stones and splashes of greenery, between light and memory. Getting lost in Oppède is like waking up with the soul of the Luberon and feeling as if you've discovered a hidden treasure.
