An earthquake of magnitude 2.9 occurred only 4 minutes ago 8 km southeast of Avignon, France, France’s Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) reported.
The quake hit at a very shallow depth of 5. km beneath the epicenter near Avignon, Vaucluse, Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur, France, early morning on Tuesday, May 13th, 2025, at 5:35 am local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 2.9 as well.
