Roussillon is a picturesque village located in the Luberon region of Provence, France. The commune is particularly notable for its striking ochre cliffs and deposits, which have played a significant role in its history and development.
These natural ochre deposits, varying in color from yellow to deep red, were extensively quarried until the 1930s and gave the village its distinctive architecture and identity. Situated on a hilltop, Roussillon is characterized by its colorful buildings, narrow medieval streets, and rich artistic heritage. The village has long attracted artists and creatives, drawn by its unique light and dramatic landscapes.
Today, Roussillon maintains its cultural significance through various artistic venues and maintains its historical connection to the ochre industry through the Conservatoire des Ocres et Pigments Appliqués, which helps preserve and share this aspect of local heritage.
