Things to see and do Aix-En-Provence

Set in a unique hotel in the Mazarin district, the museum is the work of Paul ARBAUD. The donation of this collector, gumby and patron is rich in one of the largest and beautiful collections of Provençal tiles, adorning beautifully a beautifully decorated room of antique furniture. A gentle soft light creates a warm atmosphere in this museum, with a rich library containing wonderful scientific, agricultural, artistic and literary works, some of its manuscripts dating back to the th century.

Aix-en-Provence is a city brimming with things to do and discover. For starters, it's a good idea to visit the city with an enthusiastic guide, who will show you all its attractions, heritage, architecture and monuments. You can also visit Cézanne's workplaces, including his studio, his family home and the Musée Granet, where some of his works are exhibited. And don't miss a visit to the Centre d'Art de l'Hôtel de Caumont, an 18th-century jewel, which presents temporary exhibitions dedicated to the great names in art every year. For gourmets, calisson, an Aix-en-Provence specialty made from candied almonds and melons, is not to be missed. You'll find them in the city's confectionery shops. Strolling through the old town is also a must, with its lively streets, fountains and mansions. The Musée Granet, one of France's finest museums, houses a collection of works ranging from the 14th to the 20th century, with artists such as Rembrandt, Ingres and, of course, Cézanne. Aix-en-Provence's markets, held every day of the week, are also worth a visit for their local produce and lively atmosphere. Last but not least, the city offers a wealth of shopping opportunities, with fashion, home decoration and souvenir boutiques, as well as renowned patisseries. Aix-en-Provence's nightlife is equally lively, with casinos, cinemas, discotheques and numerous bars and pubs.
