Lavender Museum
The Lavender Museum is a must for all nature lovers interested in true fine lavender. The Lincelé Family initiated this fabulous project in 1992, and leads the visitor to discover the 'true lavender of Provence, fine lavender. The visit takes you through a rich collection of lavender stills from the 16th century to the present time, and is commented in 11 foreign languages on the audio-guides, leaving visitors free to visit the museum in keeping with their interests. See all the rooms, collection and the projection room showing documentaries filmed at Chateau du Bois at the base of Mont-Ventoux, on planting, harvesting and the distillation of fine lavender from Haute Provence. Allow one hour for the visit to take full advantage of the fragrance and virtues of lavender.
Set in a prestigious location, with its large stone Provencal mansion and Mediterranean garden of lavender and olive trees, this veritable conservatory of genuine Provençal lavender invites you to learn more about this emblematic flower.
