What to see in Lourmarin

The must-sees
of Lourmarin.

Lourmarin stands where the Luberon mountain road opens onto the plain. A Renaissance castle, a handful of shaded squares and one of the best-known markets in Provence — comfortably a half day out of Marseille or Aix.

🏰

The Renaissance castle

One of the first Renaissance castles built in Provence, joined to an older medieval wing. Inside, a spiral staircase and a balcony over the fields; today it hosts artists in residence and summer concerts.

🧺

The Friday morning market

One of the most celebrated markets in the Luberon. It takes over the whole village from early morning — market gardeners, olives, soaps, Provençal fabrics and pottery — and packs up around lunchtime.

🔔

The lanes and the belfry

A compact old village of narrow streets, stone fountains and plane-shaded squares, watched over by the belfry and its wrought-iron campanile.

The Protestant temple

Lourmarin kept a Reformed community, and its temple still stands a few steps from the parish church — two strands of village history side by side.

🕯️

Albert Camus’s grave

The writer spent his last years in Lourmarin. He and his wife Francine lie in the village cemetery, under two plain stones half hidden by rosemary — a quiet five-minute stop.

Tips from your chauffeur
  • Friday is market day: the village fills from early morning and the streets around the centre close to traffic — set off early and be dropped at the nearest authorised point rather than hunting for a space.
  • Lourmarin is small. Half a day covers it comfortably, which leaves room to add Bonnieux, Ménerbes or Roussillon on the same outing.
  • Ask for the Combe de Lourmarin: the gorge road climbing towards Apt is one of the finest drives in the Luberon and adds only a few minutes.
  • Agree your return time before you set off: mobile coverage is patchy in the Luberon hills and the village goes quiet early in the evening.

Taxi or private chauffeur?

The price you see is the price you pay.

With a meter, the final fare depends on traffic, the route taken and night or luggage surcharges — and the Luberon roads are slow by nature. With Marseille Provence Driver the fare is fixed and confirmed before departure: tolls and luggage included, no night surcharge, and a single point of contact from your first message to the drop-off.

FAQ

Questions before
booking?

Yes. The old centre of Lourmarin is narrow and partly closed to traffic, especially on market day. We set you down at the closest authorised point and agree the pick-up spot with you before we leave.

Half a day is enough for the castle, the lanes and the market. A full day leaves time to add other Luberon villages such as Bonnieux, Ménerbes or Roussillon on the same run.

Yes. We follow your flight or train, meet you with a name sign and the fare is fixed in advance: €120 from Marseille Provence Airport, €80 from Aix-en-Provence TGV station.
