Strolling in the coolness of the old village of Coudoux, you will See Provençal architecture with arches, stone houses, old houses from the 13th century, and a former sheepfold. The classical church built in the 18th century, dedicated to the village's patron saint of St Michael the Archangel, has a decorated porch and a sundial on its façade. The paths through the surrounding land are dotted with many wayside crosses and shrines. The oil mill is one of the last to use the old-fashioned technique of pressing the olives. From a vantage point at the top of the village, you can enjoy views of Provence from Sainte- Victoire to La Crau and from Sainte Baume to the Mont Ventoux.
