What To Expect

Les Alyscamps

The journey through long history starts at Alyscamps, one of the most famous ancient necropolises worldwide. The large Roman burial ground consisting of tombs and sarcophagi dating to 1500 years ago offers a great chance to learn about Arles Romans’ relationship with the afterlife. Don’t forget to check out the weathered 11th-century St-Honorat chapel at the eastern end which adds to the solemn and tranquil atmosphere of the cemetery.

Arles Arena

Then, admire Arles’s most prominent landmark, Arles Arena. The colossal Roman amphitheatre dominates Old Town’s center around which life has been thriving ever since 80 AD. Walking around the composing structure rewards you with an enthralling glimpse into over 20,000 excited Roman spectators watching thrilling chariot races or bloody gladiators’ fights and the bygone 'town within a town' that grew up within its walls.

Roman Theatre of Arles

Just a stone’s throw away is Arles Roman Theater. The ruins which are now only half of their original size provide a precious testimony to the Roman social life in Arles. Interestingly, the stage for comedies, dramas, or tragedies that once thrived under Roman times has gained a new lease of life as a popular concert setting in present-day Arles.
