Val d'Enfer
Les Baux de Provence - Landscape
Le monde minéral et chaotique des Baux-de-Provence a inspiré de nombreux écrivains. Son paysage tourmenté aux falaises percées de grottes a donné naissance à bien des légendes.
Dans le Val d'Enfer, gardé par des monstres de pierre, les légendes et les poètes y logèrent sorcières et fées. Dante s'inspira de ce vallon niché au pied du village pour écrire son Inferno et Mistral, dans Mirèio, y situa l'antre de la sorcière Taven. Une cabro d'or garde le trésor d'un prince Sarrazin enfoui depuis des siècles !
