It had a population of 615 in 2006. HistoryIts current name derives from the Latin Albaruffum. Its castle was built in the 12th century to oppose Saracen and Italian incursions, and went through major overhauls in the 16th and 17th centuries. The castle was damaged during the French Revolution, was repaired in 1929 using private funds, was set on fire by German occupation troops in 1944 as a reprisal for acts of resistance, and restored again after 1960. In its chapel are 18th-century wall paintings that are registered as historical monuments. Its parish Church is dedicated to Saint John the Baptist. Outside the village is the traditionalist Roman Catholic Benedictine Abbey named Sainte-Madeleine du Barroux, founded in 1978 by Dom Gérard Calvet (1927–2008). Charles, Prince of Wales spent a week in the village in November 1990, convalescing after an operation.[1]Le Barroux is sister town with the English village of Much Marcle. Economy
