MALLEMORT DE PROVENCE Mallemort is located in the heart of Provence. It is an ideal location for holidays where you can visit some world famous sites such as Aix- en-Provence, Marseille and its “Calanque“ bay, Saint-Remy and the Alpilles, Arles and the Camargue, but also the surrounding charming villages of the Luberon. There is a curious and marvellously complementary duality to Mallemort. The village is proud of its dual personality. It boasts a location in the deepest part of Provence with its quaint village, traditional events and vast tracts of farmland, all of which contrast to great effect with the Domaine de Pont Royal, a centre for residential tourism with its accommodation and leisure facilities such as its golf course, swimming pools, shops, restaurants, hotels in a 47-hectare park! The peaceful village is combined with a dynamic domain to make a most unusual and very modern provençal village. 5

V I L L A G E & H E R I TA G E The history of Mallemort remains shrouded in mystery. Some historians trace the name of “Mallemort” back to the Romans, but this is uncertain. What is certain is that the hill known today as Mallemort has been occupied since Antiquity. Even Julius Caesar may have alluded to a vast hill surrounded by forests in his memoirs. The remains of a Roman rampart and coins were discovered not far from the hill. Our oldest medieval sources indicate that the earliest lord of the area was Pontius de Malamorte, first consul to the Counts of Provence in 1150. Mallemort was a fair-sized village at the time. Knights Hospitaller of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem owned vast tracts of land around Mallemort along with a hospital and chapel. Some of their buildings were linked by underground passages which connected at the bottom of the quartier des Estrayas. The village’s status changed significantly in 1257 following an exchange by Count Berenger of Provence, which placed the village under the ecclesiastical dominion of the bishops of Marseilles. The lord bishops established a large Jewish colony around their castle to encourage trade. Flourishing trade in Mallemort during the Middle Ages can be attributed to the presence of a ferry that crossed the Durance river. Especially through the breeding of silkworms which gives it the status of the most productive department in silk farming. Thanks to growing trade and extensive farming, Mallemort became a prized location. Farms gradually grew and became prosperous. Between 1950 and 1970 there were 200 farms in the area! Today, only some 50 remain and the village has turned to another sector, tourism, with the creation of the Domaine de Pont Royal. 8
H I STO RY O F M A L L E M O RT Saint Michel church Built from 1751 to 1756 a classical style, the church was originally situated on the site of the current cemetery at the top of the village. It replaced the old church which had become too old, the new church was built in the heart of the village. At the top of the bell tower, the patron saint figures on the summit of the steeple in a weathervane reminiscent of Saint Michael’s fight with its representation, a dragon. Keep The sole remains of the castle belonged to the bishops of Marseilles who were its feudal lords from 1260 to 1789, the castle was extensive and covered the houses in rue Clastres and the former presbytery. The castle was destroyed and pillaged during the revolution. Its stones were used to build houses in Mallemort. Table map The map is located at the castle base where visitors can enjoy an outstanding view of the Durance valley, the Luberon and the Alpilles. Saint Peter’s oratory Located not far from the village centre, the oratory is the oldest in the village and one of the oldest in the entire department. It is in pure Henri II style and dates back to 1548. Water in Provence France’s 16th century engineering genius, Adam de Craponne, created a remarkable irrigation system for the Crau and lower Durance that turned the plain into a fertile centre for agriculture. His canals saved the valley from the summer droughts of its Mediterranean environment. It was thanks to the creation of the canal of Boisgelin in around 1770 that Mallemort enjoyed an easy and widespread access to water. 9

Suspension bridge: the Durance river runs beneath Built between 1844 and 1848 by order of King Louis-Philippe, the bridge is 320 metres long with a wooden floor 6.2 metres wide. It was swept away the first time by a flood of the Durance in 1872 and then again in 1880, 1882 and 1886. The 1886 flood severely weakened the right-hand pier. The bridge was rebuilt from 1887 to 1892 and remained intact until 1940 when bombardments seriously damaged.
