Heritage

From medieval fortress to food village

The hills of Le Rouret were settled early, in the time of the hilltop oppida, and a château stood here from the 11th century. The de Grasse family held the lordship from the 14th to the 17th century. Le Rouret became a commune in its own right after the French Revolution, in 1793, and in 1830 the hamlet of Bergier, until then part of Châteauneuf, became the village centre.

The 18th-century Church of Saint-Pons, with its painted starry vaults and square bell tower (1852), stands at the centre of the village. Century-old plane trees frame the square and its fountain. The hills hold traces of a long past: the Castellaras hilltop enclosure and its fallen megalith, the Camp du Bois, the Clamarquier dolmen and the remains of a Roman farming estate.

Today Le Rouret, with 4,209 residents (INSEE, 2023), is known for its truffles. Its annual truffle market each January is a high point of village life. Le Clos Saint-Pierre, listed in the Michelin Guide, has put Le Rouret on the food map. Linked to the region’s historic flower and perfume trades (Grasse perfumeries, UNESCO 2018), Le Rouret is still a working village rather than a tourist stop, with a close community and living Provençal traditions.
