This simple campanile is on the clock tower of the village of Lurs. This place used to be the summer residence of the Bishops of Sisteron in earlier days, but was all but abandoned in the twentieth century as it had no electricity or mains water. In the second half of the century a group of graphic designers led by Maximilian Vox saved it and it survives today as one of Alpes de Haute Provence's pretty hilltop villages.
