Location & what to see
Forcalquier is a small Provençal town in Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, between the Luberon and the Lure mountain. Its old town extends around Notre-Dame-du-Bourguet Co-Cathedral and the citadel, with sloping lanes, shady squares and stone façades. Provençal markets are part of local life and showcase regional produce. The town suits travellers looking to combine heritage, walks and outings in the landscapes of Haute-Provence.
Jardin des Cordeliers and Couvent des Cordeliers are 1.8 km away; Citadelle Park and Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-Provence are 1.9 km away. In the old town, Notre-Dame-du-Bourguet Co-Cathedral bears witness to Forcalquier’s religious history, while Les Rochers des Mourres offer a distinctive geological landscape 3.1 km away. La Brillanne-Oraison railway station is 7 km away. A car makes it easier to take trips to the Lure mountain, the Luberon and the Verdon Gorge, where trails and scenic roads reveal a variety of landscapes.
Spring and autumn are good seasons for walks and sightseeing in mild temperatures; summer brings hot days, making early outings and breaks in the shade appealing.
