Ôkhra - Conservatory of ochres and color
To better understand the industrial adventure of ochre which completely transformed the Vaucluse landscape from Roussillon to Rustrel in “Provencal Colorado”, you really must visit the Conservatory in the former Mathieu Factory. Here everything is still ochre-coloured, from floor to ceiling, creating a remarkable contrast between the earthy colours and the bright hues of the pine trees which stand outside the building.
