The central historical part of the city, including the Palace of the Popes, the Saint-Benezet bridge, and the fortification walls that surround the city, is now a protected UNESCO heritage site.
The climax of Avignon’s season comes with the Avignon Theater Festival, when for three weeks the city dominates France’s cultural life. Beginning in the second week of July, the emphasis of this festival is theatre in its different guises, turning the city into one big stage.
