Today, it has around 250 active members or benefactors, all of whom are volunteers.

In this regard, the restoration of Chรขteau Lascaris is the focal point of the association’s efforts, supported by Europe, the Region, the General Council, and the Municipality.
-The Brigasque Heritage House was established in May 2000. It serves as the village’s memory, bringing together trades and tools of the past, scenes of daily life, and the history of beekeeping, which is very present in the region. A large-scale project for the building’s rehabilitation and interior space development is nearing completion. It reopened its doors on June 1, 2006.
