Step into history with a combined ticket to three of Avignon’s most iconic landmarks. Begin your journey at the Palace of the Popes, the largest Gothic palace in Europe and a testament to the 14th-century papal legacy. With the included Histopad, immerse yourself in reconstructed medieval rooms, admire intricate frescoes, and learn about the lives of nine popes who once resided here. Discover the architectural techniques and cultural significance that made this palace a center of spiritual and temporal power.

Next, visit the Avignon Bridge, officially known as the Pont Saint-Bénezet. This legendary 12th-century bridge, now partially preserved with four remaining arches, offers a glimpse into medieval engineering and the turbulent history of Avignon. With an audioguide, uncover the fascinating stories of its construction, destruction, and enduring legacy in French folklore.

Conclude your visit in the Pontifical Gardens, a tranquil space once reserved for papal relaxation. Stroll through the beautifully restored gardens, featuring the Griffon Fountain and a vibrant meadow. The gardens provide a serene escape and a perfect vantage point for panoramic views of Avignon.

Whether you’re a history enthusiast or a casual traveler, this experience offers a comprehensive journey through Avignon’s rich heritage.
