The small town crowds around the foot of an imposing mediaeval castle that was altered in the 17th century.

Behind the castle, at the bottom of the Pas de l'Etroit valley, stand three arches of a Roman aqueduct. The exact date of its construction is not known.

The aqueduct brought water from La Traconnade to Aix. It was 40 km long. The conduit was supported by bridges on solid walls and arches to cross the valleys along the route between Jouques and Meyrargues
