Culture and history
The Château du Barroux is partly classified as a historic monument and partly listed as a historic monument; at the same time, it benefits from full protection. The Monastère Sainte-Madeleine is a Benedictine monastery founded in Bédoin in 1970 and relocated to Le Barroux in 1980. It offers spiritual stays or retreats exclusively for men.
The Moulin à Huile du Barroux is an oil mill of the Moulin à Chapelle type, built in 1792 and in operation until 1853. A millstone and Chapelle-type presses are still visible. The former Moulin à Huile du Barroux has been listed as a historic monument since 19 July 2006 and can only be visited as part of guided tours.
The Jardin du Mont Ventoux features a garden tour accompanied by fountains and watercourses, with selected works of art, lavender or iris beds bordered by dry-stone walls, an orchard and a Zen garden. The Jardin du Mont Ventoux in Le Barroux is a private estate bearing the Jardin remarquable label since 2023.
At Les Lamas du Barroux, visits are only possible by prior reservation; a tour of the weaving workshop is also offered.
The Écoute & Goûte literature festival takes place every year in mid-June and offers meetings, discussion panels, book signings, readings, workshops, exhibitions and performances. The festival is open to all audiences, including children, teenagers and adults.
