Notre-Dame-d'Alydon, Medieval church in hilltop Oppède, France.

Notre-Dame-d'Alydon Church stands on a rocky outcrop in the Luberon, featuring a hexagonal bell tower and three bays flanked by six side chapels.

The initial construction dates from the 10th or 11th century, and the church became a collegiate in 1546 under Antoine Trévula, vice-legate of Pope Paul III.

The Oppède Festival brought together numerous artists to support the restoration efforts of the architectural heritage and its religious artworks.

The church is accessible only by foot via Rue du Chapitre, with free guided tours provided by the Oppède town hall.

The octagonal choir includes a seventh chapel and houses an 18th-century gilded wooden altarpiece restored by a craftsman from Avignon.
