Palais des Papes: The iconic momument of Avignon, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, no longer present much of the opulence that prevailed during the papal period in the 14th and 15th century. There are a few rooms that have kept their frescoes (of which you can’t take pictures) but the rest are simply empty rooms where you can admire the architecture and the craftsmen expertise of the time but nothing more.

Avignon / France

The historic centre, which includes the Palais des Papes, the cathedral, and the Pont d'Avignon, became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. The medieval monuments and the annual Festival d'Avignon have helped to make the town a major centre for tourism.

Mauvais jour.
