5 km from l’Isle-sur-sorgue, 13 km from Cavaillon The Romanesque church of Notre Dame-du-Lac, a listed historical building, has been looking over the small town of Le Thor since the twelfth century. Perfectly preserved, it is unique amongst Romanesque churches in that it offers a rich diversity of sculptures, particularly on its west door and its southern porch. You can also visit the caves of Thouzon, with its many truly remarkable stalactites and stalagmites. |
