Avignon is one of the few French cities to have preserved its ramparts in their entirety, and you can explore them by bike.

Avignon is one of the few French cities to have preserved all of its ancient ramparts (classified as historic monuments). As a result, it's hard to separate the city from the witnesses of its history. Between four and five kilometers of 14th-century stone lace encircle the old town. They are flanked by thirty-nine towers and pierced by seven main gates: Porte de l'Oulle, Porte Dominique, Porte Saint-Roch, Porte de la République, Porte Saint-Michel, Porte Limbert and Porte Saint-Charles.

Très beaux remparts bien conservés qui permettent de se rendre compte de la taille de la ville et de l'imaginer à l’époque. Parfait pour une promenade ! N’hésitez pas !

Une des merveilles d'Avignon! Ces remparts qui entourent la ville et n'ont jamais été détruits donnent une âme très authentique à la ville, et en faire le tour est une balade plus que plaisante.

Une belle balade à faire. prenez-vous pour un garde de l'ancien temps et/ou profitez de la vue et de l'immensité de la citadelle !

Une vraie attraction car les remparts sont intacts et n'ont jamais été détruits.
Taille très impressionnante. On en fait le tour en s'arrêtant aux différentes portes. Un incontournable !

Superbes remparts, très bien conservés, qui sont un chef d'oeuvre de construction et qui font partie de la renommée d'Avignon. On imagine fort bien la ville d'antan !
