Église Saint-Firmin is the main parish church of Gordes, located in the heart of the village. Originally built in the 12th century in Romanesque style, it has undergone several renovations and expansions over the centuries, resulting in a blend of Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque elements. The church features a striking bell tower, a nave with side chapels, and a beautiful altarpiece. Inside, you'll find notable artworks, including a painting of Saint Firmin and a 17th-century wooden Christ. The church is still active for worship and offers a peaceful respite from the bustling village. Its elevated position provides a pleasant view of the surrounding area.
