Secret provence
A moondial in the Alpilles, a village in the Haut-Var without which Louis XIV might never have been born, a theory that Saint Sarah was actually the daughter of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, a night spent in a bubble or up a tree, a statue of « The worst damned German poet of the lot », an antipope who disappeared in the Lubéron, a Masonic sundial, a rather unusual marriage door, traces of the Resistance still surviving in Manosque, a World War I trench, contemporary art in a 17th-century church, vestiges of the revolutionary cult of the Supreme Being...
Wander off the beaten track and you will find that Provence is teeming with curiosities to surprise and intrigue you, whether you are just visiting or you live there and thought you knew it well.
