Reilhanette
At the confluence of the Anary and Toulourenc rivers, surrounded by hills and dominated by the ruins of its castle and Mont Ventoux, the medieval village of Reilhanette is less than two kilometers west of Montbrun-les-Bains.
A strategic site in the Middle Ages, from which to monitor the Toulourenc valley, centuries later it was one of the two Fire Control Posts for the French nuclear strike force, which was then based on the Albion plateau.
