Le Fort, a fortified building dating back to the century in Buoux, where the three enclosures and the defensive wall can still be seen.
A Luberon fortress built on a rocky spur, the fort's exceptional strategic position controlled the only easy passage from the Luberon to Buoux in the Aiguebrun valley. Fortified as early as the 12th century, Catholics and Protestants fought over the site during the Wars of Religion, taking it in turn before Louis XIV ordered its dismantling, fearing that the fort would serve as a refuge for Huguenots. The view from the top of the rocky point at the foot of the keep is spectacular. A very instructive walk!

Magnificent extremely being rebuilt thanks to the starters on the site. The panoramic view is breathtaking. Remember to take along good shoes because the access is difficult.
