The Palais des Papes, a major monument in the PACA region, sits at the gateway to Provence, where the Rhône meets the Durance.

At the gateway to Provence, where the Rhône meets the Durance, the Palais des Papes proudly stands like a fortress. With over 650,000 visitors a year, it is one of the ten most visited monuments in France. A true symbol of the Church's influence on the Christian West in the 14th century, this monumental 15,000m2 masterpiece is the largest medieval fortress and the largest Gothic palace in Europe. The palace was listed as a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1995. Well worth a visit.

Enttäuschend.
Momentan kein Tablet, kein Audioguide jedoch auch keine Information darüber während dem Ticketkauf.
Ticket ist immernoch gleich teuer.
Ich würde einen Besuch nicht empfehlen. Keine klar beschilderte Tour. Alle irren irgendwie herum.

Immersion totale grâce aux tablettes et à la partie de chasse au trésor pour revivre les coutumes et l'ensemble de la décoration des salles de l'époque. Superbe panorama du haut sur l'ensemble de la ville. On regrette cependant d'avoir tout le temps le nez collé dans la tablette et on perds un peu le charme des vieilles pierres ainsi que du passage du temps. Enrichissant et éducatif.
