- Saint Eloi Oratory
The oratory is situated in the southeast of the village, next to the bull place.
In Provence, St Eloi is the patron saint of farmers and the protector of plow horses. In all Provence, we celebrate him by parading with draft horses pulling a cart decorated with boughs.
In Maussane Alpilles, we celebrates St Eloi on the 2nd weekend of June.
