Tarascon Castle is located on the left bank of the Rhone, in the Bouches-du-Rhône department, in France. Due to its excellent state of conservation, this monument is considered one of the most beautiful medieval castles in France. Built in the 16th century by the Dukes of Anjou on the model of the Bastille in Paris.

Gigantic bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Not far from Avignon on the opposite bank of the Rhone you can see these two gigantic railway bridges. Impressive construction.

View from Pont Édouard-Daladier to the Pont Saint-Bénézet

Highlight • Viewpoint

When approaching the city from the west, you automatically have to cross this bridge, which offers a spectacular view of the Avignon "skyline" and the Pont St Bénézet.

The Pont Saint-Bénézet was probably once, when the popes still resided in Avignon, the longest bridge in Europe and led over both arms of the Rhône to the papal palace. Unfortunately, only a fraction of the former arched bridge remains. If you would like to enter it, you unfortunately have to pay admission today.
