Ribiers, Historical commune in Hautes-Alpes, France.

The territory of Ribiers covers 36.6 square kilometers in southeastern France, situated at altitudes ranging from 464 to 1,480 meters above sea level.

During the Saracen invasions of the 900s, a fortress was established near Ribiers, leading to a battle that ended in defeat for the invaders.

The village center features a 13th-century parish church, which was originally a priory belonging to the Order of Cluny.

The municipality includes agricultural farms, lavender fields, businesses, accommodations, a post office, school, retirement home, and sports facilities.
