This aerial shot of the village of Venasque in the Vaucluse department highlights its towers, classified as historical monuments since 1892, which constitute the most visible and emblematic vestige of late Antiquity. These three massive towers are very detached from the curtain walls of the enclosure which form a defensive line placed south of the hilltop village. The ramparts block the most exposed side of the natural rocky outcrop on which Venasque is implanted.
