The old town gate in Apt

Apt is known for its local very high quality products and the town can also boast of being classified as”site remarquable du gout” (a remarkable place for flavours).

Apt has primarily specialised in candied fruit, truffles, pottery and bottled lavender essence. The local market in Apt offers a rich choice of the regions produce and attracts many shoppers every Saturday morning.

The old part of town is very charming with its narrow streets, old stone houses, small shady squares and beautiful fountains, big plane trees and areas for playing pétanque.

In the middle of the old town, is the cathedral, Cathédrale Ste. Anne, which partly dates back to the 12th century. The most interesting building, Chapelle Royale, was first built in 1660 in memory of Anna of Austria who made pilgrimage to Apt. Her shroud can be found in a box in the sacristy.
Apt

In the park there is a beautifully restored 17th century mansion which is home to the Maison du Parc Naturel Régional du Lubéron.

Here you can find detailed information on the area, its flora and fauna, nature walks and hikes.

Apt is one of the few places in the area where work is still carried out in the old ochre mines.
