A stroll through the streets offers multiple discoveries: you can admire the Maison des Chevaliers, built in the 12th century with a beautiful Renaissance facade. To the south, the Anglica Tower, built in the 14th century and restored in the 18th century, showcases beautiful medieval architecture.

To the north of the village, the Château de Barbentane is sometimes called the Petit Trianon of Provence. As a private property, it is not open for tours, but it has served as a set for films and series.
