In order to showcase the richness and diversity of the religious heritage of the former papal capital, Avignon Tourism has created a series of guided tours around the churches, chapels, basilicas and synagogues of our city.
These tours are a true historical, architectural, and artistic journey. The various sites have witnessed the city's great historical moments, from the papacy to the Revolution. The churches are also veritable museums, bringing together first-rate paintings, statues, and frescoes.
