Do you realize that Jesus was actually born in Province. Really? Some Provincals believe that. Which makes it easier to understand that one of the Baux kings was part of the coterie of three kings who visited the baby Jesus. Yes, the Baux trace their lineage waaay back. They were a fighting family who at one time controlled all of Province.
Today you can visit what remains of their castle more than a thousand feet up a craggy, windswept mountain. It's a difficult climb and a treacherous descent, but once there you can view all the old siege armaments.
