In the 17th century, Louis de Forbin, Lieutenant General of the Armies of Louis XIV, asked André Le Nôtre, gardener of the Château de Versailles, to design a French garden at the foot of the Château de La Barben. At the same time, Louis de Forbin brought back a 35-metre high sequoia from the Americas. These gardens are said to be “the most beautiful in Provence”.
