Castle museum, building that became a Renaissance palace in the 16th century at La Tour-d'Aigues, which was a center of earthenware production.
Classified as a historical monument, its architecture contrasts with that of the castles in the region. In the 16th century Jean-Louis-Nicolas de Bouliers, Lord of La Tour d'Aigues, transformed his medieval castle into a true Renaissance palace. He entrusted a craftsman, François Auriol, with the realization of a polychrome earthenware pavement for the chapel, imitating the decorations of the Renaissance castles of Northern France. During the second half of the 18th century, La Tour-d'Aigues was a center of earthenware production, thanks to Jean-Baptiste-Jérôme de Bruny.
