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.

Avignon est probablement la seule ville de France dont les remparts n'ont pas été démoli . Une attraction unique à faire !

Très beaux remparts très bien conservés. Des efforts ont été faits depuis plusieurs années pour leur les remettre en état. Les parkings extérieurs sont en train d'être supprimés pour les remplacer par de beaux espaces verts bien aménagés. L'extérieur des remparts donne envie de découvrir Avignon intra-muros.

Beautiful ramparts locking up the old town and in good condition. Many car parks near each door. Give an idea of what l" you will find in the city arriving in front.

Grands et beaux remparts qui donnent un cachet indéniable à la ville.
Attention à la circulation lors de la prise de photos de la partie extérieure

c'est majestueux et donne un cachet à la ville sans commune mesure. ces remparts ont traversé le temps et sont conservés dans leur intégralité.
