Mallemorte is new on Beyond, an interesting Medieval town with castle ruins and fortified defensive was a much more pleasant place than indicated by the 11th-century origin of its name, meaning bad-death.
The new bridge across the Durance was built beside the 19th-century suspension bridge, still there and the last of its kind intact across the river.
Mallemorte is located about 30 km northwest of Aix-en-Provence, just south of the Luberon mountain range.
