Palace of the Popes
The monumental residence of the 14th-century pontiffs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the largest Gothic palace in the world (15,000 m2 of floor space, equivalent to the volume of 4 Gothic cathedrals).
The visitor can see over 20 rooms, scenes of historic events, in particular the pope’s private chambers and the frescoes painted by the Italian artist Matteo Giovannetti. The Popes’ Palace also offers the visitor continuous cultural activities throughout the year.
The ticket includes the visit of the Palace of the Popes as well as the histopad which is a touch pad that allows to live a temporal immersion in the major parts of the monument, entirely re-constituted as they could be in the 14th century.
IMPORTANT:
Each visitor must go to the line for pre-paid tickets and present their Avignon City Pass or Avignon City Pass.

A la vie, à l'amor" exhibition - Miss.Tic
From 27 Jun 2024 to 5 Jan 2025
Free
A la vie, à l'amor, the first monograph by Miss.Tic, who passed away in May 2022, celebrates the poetic force of her work!
A pioneer of French urban art, she was above all a poetess in the city. Her literary, societal and philosophical projects, written in aerosol ink on walls, canvases and metal sheets over a period of more than forty years, are a veritable treasure trove.
