Palace of the Popes
Nine popes resided in Avignon in the fourteenth century, and the Palais des Papes - an imposing fortress and palatial palace - is the main testimony to their presence in the city, a symbol of the power of Christendom and the temporal and spiritual authority of the papacy in that period. Your visit to this place is an opportunity to see the large halls, the scene of celebrations, banquets and chapels with their colorful décor, the Pope's private apartments and balconies with their wonderful views of the city of Avignon and the Rhone River.
