 
Located in the North of the Vaucluse,
La Motte du Rhône lies at the boundary of three départements.You
are in for a surprise if you think that Lamotte du Rhône village is a typical
Vauclusian village with their narrow winding streets and old stone houses
grouped around the main square next to the town hall or church...
When you arrive at the roundabout at the
entrance to the village you'll find the sign indicating the center of
the village. But where is it? You don't need to look any further, around
a shady square with its fountain you'll find a number  of modern houses,
the post office and town hall.
Opposite, the primary school and village hall lie next to the ancient
village church which has recently been magnificently restored to its former
glory with a beautiful esplanade. A few scattered houses and two shops
make up the rest of the village.
Very few historic places to visit, although
along a the plane tree lined shady D994 you can find the XIII° Pont St
Esprit . The bridge rosses the River Rhône and has 26 arches, is 290 meters
long and 5 meters wide.
