It was named after the fortress around which it grew, Forcalquier. The earliest mention of a castle at Forcalquier dates to 1044, when it was in the possession of Fulk Bertrand, joint count of Provence.

The counts of Toulouse claimed the title ''marchio'' as descendants of Emma of Provence, while the counts of Barcelona laid claim to Provence as descendants of Douce I. In 1125 a formal division of Provence into a march and a cou ...
