Roman and Romanesque heritage

Arles is a city of art and history, classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage of Humanity site for three reasons:

for its ancient centre and all its Roman and Romanesque monuments
as a natural space of global interest: registration of the Camargue in the World Network of Biosphere Reserves
as part of the St James’ Way (also the Way to Rome and to Jerusalem). Since the Middle Ages, the Arles Way has been one of the four routes through France and Europe to Santiago

Arles is city open to the outside world as it welcomes many tourists and major international events throughout the year: the Easter Feria, the weekend of contemporary art and during the summer the Rencontres Internationals de la Photographie, the Suds Festival, les Escales du Cargo, the festival Arelate,...

Museums, institutions, associations and foundations are devoted to the dissemination of art such as the Departmental Museum of Ancient Arles, the Vincent Van Gogh foundation, the Reattu Museum, the Museon Arlaten, the Camargue Museum, as well as the Arles Contemporain network which brings together nearly 18 venues dedicated to contemporary art.

The city is also home to the LUMA Foundation Campus whose tower was designed by one of the greatest contemporary architects, Frank Gehry, and is an architectural feat.
