Description


Lacoste (France) est un magnifique village du Luberon, installé sur une colline verdoyante au dessus d'une vaste plaine. Il fait face au village de Bonnieux que l'on aperçoit sur la colline d'en face. Lacoste est le village qui abrite le château résidence du célèbre Marquis de Sade. C'est en 1771 qu'il vint se réfugier dans ce château (qui appartenait à son grand-père) pour fuir Paris et les scandales provoqués par ses écrits érotiques et ses moeurs (très, très) libertines. Ce grand château du XI° en partie en ruine, domine le village et les vestiges des remparts, admirez le de loin car ses abords ne sont pas totalement sécurisés (chutes de pierre). Il appartient maintenant au célèbre couturier Pierre Cardin qui le restaure et y organise chaque été un festival culturel. Le château de Sade n'est pas la seule chose à découvrir à Lacoste, le village possède de charmantes petites rues pavées en calade qu'il faut prendre le temps de découvrir. Les rues montent et descendent, serpentent dans un petit labyrinthe charmant, c'est avec délice que vous découvrirez pas à pas un village qui a su garder tout son caractère. Vous passerez devant de belles maisons anciennes soigneusement restaurées, joliment encadrées de plantes et de fleurs. Les amateurs de vieille pierre seront ici comblés et auront du mal à quitter le village tant le charme et l'atmosphère qu' il s'y dégage sont attachants. (Commentaires trouvés sur le Net) °°°°° The famous château belonging to the Marquis de Sade is situated at Lacoste (France). In 1771 the Marquis fled from Paris to escape the scandals created by his erotic writing and outlandish behaviour (too liberal for the era). He came to Lacoste and sought refuge in the château which belonged to his grandfather. This huge 11th century château, partly in ruins, belonged to a professor who has been restoring it for more than 30 years. Today the château belongs to M. Pierre Cardin, the famous stylist designer. The château de Sade is not the only discovery to be made at Lacoste. The village has charming narrow streets, paved in "calade" stone and wandering around is a pleasant way to pass the time. You will come across beautiful old stone houses, some of which are being restored. Most are made from ochre, limestone and amateur geologists and history lovers will find it difficult to leave this engaging place. °°°°°°°° Thanks for comments - Commentaires appréciés
