A mineral treasure in the heart of the Alpilles

A mineral treasure in the heart of the Alpilles

Located in the town of Les Baux de Provence, these old stone quarries extend over an area of almost three hectares and offer a magnificent natural landscape, forged over the centuries by man and natural elements.

This exceptional site with omnipresent minerality is in the heart of the Val d’Enfer, a place steeped in history that inspired the most illustrious thinkers, poets and artists such as Nostradamus, Dante, Mistral or Cocteau. Exploited since Antiquity and until 2007 for stone cutting, this prestigious space is awaiting a new proposal to accompany the effervescence of its Enlightenment counterpart and welcome new enthusiasts.

The main quarry, like a cathedral nave rehabilitated into an event venue, can be seen behind a monumental curved glass roof set on this limestone jewel. The room with an impressive volume develops a surface of 235m2 on a terrazzo concrete slab with underfloor heating, supplemented by elementary functional spaces under a sky of rock culminating at 10 meters. Transversely, a collateral space concealed by two palisades hosts a kitchen with a cold room overlooked by a mezzanine dedicated to storage. At the back of the room, an opening gives access to the exteriors made up of several interlocking terraces between the rocks. Along the walk on a wooded park, we discover works and sculptures scattered between the cavities and the reliefs as well as a natural amphitheater. On the top of the property, a mazet with toilets and shower faces the rocky outcrop where the medieval village and its castle are located, with the Camargue and the Mediterranean as a horizon.

A private parking area of 900 m2 inside former open-air quarries completes this unique property. 5th category Type L ERP provided with the relevant large catering and drinking establishment license.
