The Pontifical Gardens of the Popes' Palace
The Jardin du Pape is an intimate garden with direct access from the Pope's apartments. The redevelopment has restored its precious character, with the re-creation of the griffin fountain and the surrounding flower meadow. The famous and imposing Roma building, of which only a trace remains on the ground, has been reconstituted in the form of a monumental pergola, which will eventually be entirely covered with plants.a restoration project undertaken by the City of Avignon and Avignon Tourisme with the support of the State, the DRAC, the Southern Region, the Crédit Agricole Foundation and the L'Occitane Foundation.
