Secret Provence - Poche

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", a private Coca Cola museum in Avignon, an antipope who disappeared in the Lubéron, a Masonic sundial, a rather unusual marriage door, traces of the Resistance still surviving in Manosque ...
There is so much more to Provence than pictures of lavender fields and pretty villages with people playing pétanque and drinking pastis. 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.
