The Palace of the Popes

At the heart of the history of Avignon and the world

Take advantage of your stay in our hotel to discover Avignon.

In the heart of the city, the Palace of the Popes has seen 9 Popes in succession. Built in only 70 years, it has become a high place of Christian religious life. This symbol of the influence of the church in the 14th century was also a military barracks, a theatre stage and an exhibition space.

A step back in history for your visit...

The monument has more than 20 places to visit, including the superb private flats of the pope with magnificent frescoes by Matteo Giovannetti. Discover them with a Histopad digital tablet that will allow you to go back in time and relive the splendour of the papal court through a multimedia immersion.

The Palais des Papes is open every day, all year round.
