Top Avignon Museums

Follow in the footsteps of the Romans at the Ancient Theatre of Orange. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site and see the iconic stage wall decorated with the original statues and columns. The beautifully preserved Roman theatre was used for stage performances, until it was eventually abandoned and looted by barbarians. Thanks to the 19th century restoration, the theatre is used today for festivals and concerts by popular artists such as Elton John and Johnny Hallyday. Enjoy a virtual experience, where you’ll put on a VR headset and journey back in time. Follow Jade, who finds a mysterious Roman mask and is transported to the time of Ancient Romans – where she’s tasked with getting the theatre ready for show time. And don’t forget to visit the Museum of Art and History of Orange and see the famous cadaster, an ancient roman map carved in stone, and admire paintings from Frank Brangwyn and Albert De Belleroche.
