Understand

• Lacoste is a small "hilltop" village (villages perchés) in the Luberon and it's really a treat to wander these small cobbled streets feeling like you are entering the past... Going up in the village you will reach the Marquis de Sade's Castle at the very top of Lacoste. It looks like a ruin at first but has been partially renovated since the 1950s, first "by one man as a labour of love", and later by the fashion designer Pierre Cardin.
