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 — a detour off the fixed-fare route, to arrange when you book.
  • →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.

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.

Excellent experience with Hamid and his driving service. He arrived on time, and even walked 2 blocks to greet us at our rental on foot because our place was in a pedestrian- only zone and could not be reached by car. The drive itself was smooth and very comfortable. I highly recommend Hamid and Marseille Provence Driver 👏🏽

We were traveling as a family and had a great experience with the transfer service. They picked us up at the Marseille cruise port and took us to Aix-en-Provence. Both drivers were very polite, friendly, and professional. Everything went smoothly and the service was excellent. We were very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend them!
