The Saint-Luc parish church was mentioned for the first time at the end of the 13th century. It comes from a priory dedicated to Saint-Sauveur which in the 14th century depended on the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Gilles. Ruined in the 14th and 15th centuries amid murderous conflicts between local lords, the church was rebuilt in 1510 and attached in 1538 to the chapter of Saint-Agricol of Avignon after the secularization of the abbey of Saint-Gilles. It was devastated once again between 1573 and 1578 during the occupation of the village by the Huguenots troops of Scipion de Valavoire and became a hotbed of Protestantism during the French Wars of Religion.
