 village, interesting place

Oppède-Le-Vieux is a magnificent little hill-top village. Built high on a rocky outcrop and surrounded by lush vegetation, thick forests and rocks form a striking backdrop. You will be enchanted by this historic village which has so much to offer: a 12th century collegiate church which dominates the skyline, the ruins of an ancient château and the remains of historic workshops and boutiques. It is a pleasure to wander around this village and visitors will admire the charming 15th and 16th century houses that have been skilfully restored. www.provenceweb.fr/e/vaucluse/oppede/oppede.htm
