Rue des Teinturiers
Gothic façade of the Saint Pierre Church in Avignon. Located right in the center of town, a stone's throw from the Aubanel printing museum, the Place Saint Pierre, cobbled with shingle stones, is the church square for the parish church that bears the same name. Saint-Pierre had been rebuilt in 1385, thanks to a donation from the Cardinal Pierre de Près. Unfortunately we cannot enter and admire the panelling, the altarpiece, the pulpit or the paintings, one of which is the "Adoration of the Shepherds" by Simon de Chalons. But its façade, in flamboyant Provençal Gothic, is the most embellished of all of Avignon's churches and its doors alone merit a look.

Eglise Saint Pierre

You can find out about the history of Avignon when you stop by Eglise Saint Pierre. Stroll along the area's riverfront or simply enjoy its local cheese shops.
