Bonnieux
The Gallo-Roman name was Bitrona. Then it was Bonilis Castrum (Xth century) Bonils (XIIth century) of Bonilis (S. XIV).

The Provencal form is BonieuxPrehistory is present here in many places (Neolithic settlers, especially on the fringes of the plateau Claparedes). The Gallo-Roman town stood on the edge of the plain (Roman villas were located in several places): the raised part was oppidum Celto-Liguria; it is around this area better protected than the town is built in the Middle Ages. In the XIII century, the castle (Castellum today Castellas), owned by the powerful family from Agout, in order to protect the community from continuing threats coming from the plain, undertook to surround himself with powerful walls and towers (Castrum). From the end of the XIII century to the Revolution (1789) the city belongs to the papal domain (Papal) which gives a result of this particular position enclave, a place in the history of our region.
