We invite you to discover a small historical and architectural treasure located in the heart of Villeneuve lez Avignon : the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame. This Gothic building, erected in the 14th century, bears witness to the importance of the city in the Middle Ages, when it was a popular place of passage and pilgrimage.

We can start by observing the exterior appearance of the collegiate church, with its turrets, its bell tower and its impressive facade.
