 church, hill, village, interesting place

Saignon covers an area of 1960 hectares. It is bounded to the north by the Calavon and to the south by the Claparèdes plateau, while a small mountain stream, the Rimayon, passes through.
The village is 4 km from Apt and dominates the valley, over which it seems to keep guard. It stands on a rocky spur around three structures: a castle chapel which blends in with the rock and is the identification symbol of the village, the clock tower and the church. www.luberon-apt.fr
