La Grande Lauzade is an old Provencal house, that was constructed in the 18th century. It was built on the site of a former Monastery whose origins date as far back as the 11th century (and even before the year thousand, in Gallo-Roman times the site was already inhabited!).
The original Monastery was large and well known throughout the région, (see History of Le Prieuré) was plundered and completely destroyed during the French Révolution, and then sold by the French State as a National property.
The house as it is today was built in 1790 on the foundations of the church, with the original stones from the monastery.
