Oppède (French pronunciation: [ɔpɛd]; Occitan: Opeda) is a commune in the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France.

In winter, the Petit Luberon starts casting its shadow early in the afternoon.

In the 19th century, the inhabitants had enough and started to move down in the valley, dismantling the roof of their houses to stop paying property taxes.

By the beginning of the 20th century, Oppède-le-Vieux was a ghost village and a new community was officially established in the valley, with larger streets, cosier houses and farmers closer to their fields.

Following the armistice of June 1940, architect Bernard Zehrfuss founded a commune of artists in the old town, a project that attracted French sculptor François Stahly and the writer and artist Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry.
