Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon, French commune in Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France

Located at an elevation of 520 meters, this commune overlooks the turquoise waters of Lake Sainte-Croix with mountains in the background.

The creation of Lake Sainte-Croix between 1973 and 1975 transformed the landscape, requiring the construction of new bridges and the relocation of several farms.

Local markets display regional products including honey, goat cheese, lamb, olives, and fresh produce from farms across the Provence region.

The town hall, situated at Passage Cathy-Falco, operates Monday through Friday with specific morning and afternoon hours for administrative services.

The lake serves multiple functions: hydroelectric power generation, water supply for Mediterranean cities, and as a water collection point for firefighting aircraft.
