Photo prise à : Lacoste, Vaucluse

The castle's origins are in the 11th century, but it was largely modified in subsequent centuris. The Marquis de Sade stayed there from 1769 to 1772, between the scandals at Arcueil and Marseille, then after the latter and his flight to Italy, he took refuge there until his incarceration in the Château de Vincennes in 1777. Escaping while being transferred to Aix, he took refuge there for the last time from 16 July to 7 September 1778 before being returned to Vincennes. In 2001, Pierre Cardin bought the castle. His second residence, the castle is being renovated. In summer each year, he organises a musical artistic festival in the quarries to the west of the castle.
