Lantosque currently has 1,231 inhabitants. In 1848, the commune had 2,573. Four hamlets—Saint-Colomban, Loda, Camari, and Pélasque—along with the main town, make up the Lantosque population. Saint-Colomban (related to Sanctus Colombanus) was founded in the early 7th century. After the Saracen invasions (9th–10th centuries), the power of the Counts of Provence was established over the valley, and the castle of Loda was destroyed by Romée de Villeneuve. In the 9th century, Charlemagne granted the fief to the Abbey of Saint-Pons. More information...
