A museum where you can find out all about lavender, its cultivation and its benefits, and watch two documentaries.

For years, the lavender museum had been one of the region's curiosities, attracting large numbers of visitors. A major renovation was completed in 2023 to bring the site up to date, and offer an even more immersive and educational experience to its visitors. First of all, from Musée de la Lavande, the site became Maison de la Lavande. This change is not insignificant; it is intended to emphasize that, before being an exhibition space, the house is first and foremost a producer-distiller of lavender. The entire tour lasts 1? hours, inside and out. The unmissable train ride through the lavender fields is one of the most popular attractions. Of course, it's even more enjoyable when the lavender is in flower, i.e. from June onwards. Indoors, a brand-new 360° room screens a film recounting the history of the estate. Other new features include two exhibition rooms focusing on lavender, of course, but also on the history of farming equipment. The visit ends with a guided tour of the lavender distillation process. A panoramic terrace offers a breathtaking view of lavender fields as far as the eye can see. The outdoor areas have been completely redesigned and refurbished. A fast-food area is available, as is a well-stocked souvenir store. It's enough to spend a good half-day in the sun in the intoxicating world of this fragrant plant.
