This little village has been preserved in its natural state and boasts a medieval church. The village is built in a semicircle and looks out over a valley where the river Riou glides slowly past.

The present village is built on a rocky ridge surrounded by hills of olive groves and topped by pines and green oaks. In the typical little streets one can see ancient dwellings with sculpted doorways and gates of stone.

The inhabitants are faithful to their traditions; this is a village of quality where the accent is true, the olive oil is reputed, the vineyards well kept, and the fragrant wild plants all evoke Provence.
