The Plateau d'Albion is situated between Mont Ventoux and Montagne de Lure, at the junction of the departments of Vaucluse, Drôme, and Alpes de Haute Provence. Surrounded by picturesque villages such as Sault, Banon, and Simiane la Rotonde, this region offers the purest experience of Provence.
The sunny climate, often cleared by the Mistral wind, the arid limestone plateau, and the average altitude of 900 to 1000 meters are conducive to the cultivation of true lavender, the AOP fine lavender (Protected Designation of Origin), Lavandula angustifolia vera, whereas elsewhere only a natural hybrid, lavandin, is cultivated. Lavender Festivals are organized in Ferrassières on the first Sunday of July for the lavender bloom and in Sault on August 15th.
The villages of the Plateau d'Albion include Ferrassières, Revest du Bion, Saint Christol d'Albion, and Saint Trinit. Each village has its own charm and history to discover. Sault is the economic center of the plateau, Aurel, Simiane-la Rotonde, and Banon invite you to a bucolic escapade through their cobbled streets and stone houses.
In Saint Christol d'Albion, you can visit the museum dedicated to the work of the painter Marceau Constantin (1918-2017), originally from the village, who had a successful career and was awarded prestigious prizes, notably in the United States. He donated part of his works to the Museum of his hometown where he returned in 1981. Immerse yourself in the artistic universe of this talented painter and explore his works inspired by the beauty and soul of Provence.
The Plateau d'Albion is an exceptional destination for nature lovers and enthusiasts of Provence. Explore its landscapes, delve into its rich history, and let yourself be enchanted by the magic of authentic Provence.
