Les Baux de Provence

At the heart of the Alpilles, 15 km from Arles and 25 kilometers from Avignon, the wonderful fortified village of Les Baux de Provence is undoubtedly one of the pearls of Provence.

Ranked as Remakable Site of Taste and among the Most Beautiful Villages of France, the site of Baux-de-Provence collects awards and doesn’t fail its reputation.

Walk around its cobbled medieval streets and discover small squares, shaded terraces, artisan workshops and boutiques of Provencal products.
At the entrance of the site, you can visit the Baux History Museum where you can discover the life of the village and its history over the centuries.

The Santon museum, whose oldest parts date back to the 17th century, is also worth a visit.
At the end of the village you will find the Citadel of Baux, a historic proof of the tumultuous past of the village. Here the ruins of the medieval castle, the chapel, the Saracen tower will reveal many pages of the history of Provence.

From the round tower you can enjoy panoramic views of the Camargue and see the Crau and the Vaccarès.
