The Palais des Papes, a vast medieval papal residence, offers a journey through several centuries of history, and you can climb up to its terraces. Pont Saint-Bénézet, known as the Pont d’Avignon, offers a different view of the Rhône and the ramparts. Collection Lambert presents contemporary art in two townhouses, while Musée Calvet brings together art and archaeological collections.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for exploring on foot, with temperatures often pleasant for visiting monuments and museums. Summer days are hot and cultural events attract more visitors; planning visits early in the day leaves more time to enjoy the shaded streets. You can spend a day visiting the Palais des Papes, walking along the ramparts and crossing the centre to the Rhône. Avignon is also an urban stop from which to explore the landscapes and villages of Vaucluse, planning excursions to suit your interests.
