La Muse, the Vaudois museum of the Luberon and headquarters of the AEVHL, features a permanent exhibition on Valdism. Outdoor panels and a marked trail lead to the Vaudois Memorial among the village and castle ruins.
La Muse est le musée vaudois du Luberon, ainsi que le siège de l’Association d’Études Vaudoises et Historiques du Luberon (AEVHL), une association culturelle et laïque dont les adhérents s’intéressent à l’histoire des Vaudois et plus largement à celle du Luberon. Elle regroupe une importante documentation consacrée à cette minorité religieuse, mise à disposition des chercheurs, des passionnés d’histoire et du grand public.

La salle d’exposition permet d’accueillir les visiteurs, mais même en dehors des horaires d’ouverture, un ensemble de panneaux extérieurs reste accessible. Ces panneaux présentent l’origine du mouvement vaudois, son expansion en Europe (Allemagne, Italie…), mais aussi en Afrique du Sud et en Amérique, ainsi que les traces qu’il a laissées dans le Luberon et les Monts de Vaucluse.
Le valdéisme, la persécution religieuse et le massacre de 1545 font l’objet d’une exposition permanente.

L’accès au Mémorial Vaudois - situé sur les ruines de l’ancien village - est balisé, et plusieurs panneaux jalonnent la montée jusqu’à la table d’orientation, au sommet des vestiges du château fort.

Enfin, La Muse rassemble les publications éditées par l’AEVHL, notamment sa revue La Valmasque, ainsi qu’un important fonds documentaire consacré à l’histoire des Vaudois.

Opening times

From 31/05 to 27/09/2026 on Saturday between 9.30 am and 12 pm. Closed on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday.
