The Vieux Moulin is located on the left bank of the Réal, a tributary of the Durance, between the bridges of Guillot (known as “Spéluque” in the 12th century) and the bridge of La Motte (1861). This old oil mill was built before the 18th century. You will discover elements of remarkable craftsmanship such as large grinding wheels and an imposing screw press, the channels of supply and departure of water cut in the rock. From here you will see the showers built in 1939 by Gaston Castel, the bridges, the eastern façade of the village, and other facilities related to the river. You will be welcomed and guided by the owners of this building now converted into guest rooms.
