In Caromb, the Église Saint Maurice is one of the largest churches in the Vaucluse department and is classified as a historic monument. It was built at the beginning of the 14th century and preserves regional features of Romanesque churches, including buttresses on the nave.
The church houses an organ built in 1702 by Pierre Galeran and Charles Boisselin. Its stops and its case with five Italian-style panels are protected.
