During your excursions, you will discover the historic heritage that constitutes Provence. This unique region, situated on the banks of the Mediterranean, was the first region of Gaul to have welcomed the Greek and Roman civilisations. It has kept many vestiges of those periods with its majestic monuments which remain today the main witnesses to the Roman era. We invite you to discover some of these not-to-be-missed places.<\/p>\n

Imbued in history, the town was built on an antique site dating from more than two thousand years ago, such as the site of Glanum. Marks of this ancient past, the thermal baths, the Triumphal Arch and the Antique Mausoleum are part of the town and its Proven\u00e7al sweetness of life.<\/p>\n Archaeological site of Glanum<\/strong><\/em> After having been pillaged during the barbarian invasions, the site of Glanum, dating from the 6th century BC, was rediscovered in the last century and archaeological excavations were organised. The ruins of Roman monuments were discovered, such as a Forum, a Curia, thermal baths and temples. The presence of water and it strategic commercial position make it a fascinating site from the period that continues today to arouse a lot of interest, as much with aficionados as with the curious.

From its pomp under Roman rule, the town has preserved such remarkable monuments as the antique Roman theatre, the arena, the Alyscamps necropolis and the Roman cirque. Arles and its heritage are part of history from the Roman era up to today.<\/p>\n The Antique Theatre of Arles<\/strong><\/em> Built a century before the Arena, the Antique Theatre was rediscovered a few centuries ago and many archaeological objects were unearthed, including the famous “Venus of Arles”. Over time, the edifice has progressively readopted its function as a theatre. In summer, it hosts diverse events<\/a> such as the festival of Arles and Costumes, the International Photography Festival, the festival \u201cdes Suds\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n The Arena of Arles<\/em><\/strong> The arena of Arles is a Roman amphitheatre built around 80 AD and inspired by the Coliseum in Rome. Big shows were organized in the arena that can accommodate 25,000 spectators. Today, the town’s main symbol is also the most visited sight in Arles. The Arena hosts bullfights and diverse events for which you will find the programme on the Arena’s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Museum of Antique Arles<\/em><\/strong> The departmental museum of Antique Arles, called the “blue museum”, is situated in a modern building built on the remains of the Roman circus of Arles. It is an essential part of the town’s ancient history. In 2004, the wreck of a barge dating from the Gallo-Roman era was found on the right bank of the Rh\u00f4ne during an archaeological mission. Excavations were carried out a few years later and thousands of archaeological objects of inestimable value were recuperated from the boat and are now exhibited in the Museum of Antique Arles. Its archaeological collections cover a period starting in the Neolithic up to late Antiquity. Lectures, shows and workshops about the Roman city are organised throughout the year at the museum. Workshops and theme tours devoted to children provide a complete immersion.
