Vaugines

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vaugines is a village and commune on the southern slopes of the Luberon Massif, in the French département of Vaucluse. It is a very old and isolated village, with a population of under 500 people.

Vaugines has preserved its Provençal style, with its peaceful decorated lanes of traditional stone rural houses. The countryside surrounding Vaugines is wild and typical of Provence, and was chosen by film director Claude Berri for the filming of parts of his adaptions of Marcel Pagnol's novels Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources.
