Due to their exceptional heritage, bequeathed by previous civilisations, the Alpilles are overflowed with monuments and prestigious sites. The remains of Glanum, a Gallo-Roman city, are an opportunity to travel back in time. The Moulin Saint Pierre still evokes the memories of Alphonse Daudet in Letters From My Windmill. Rediscover the works of the great masters of painting at the Carrières de Lumières (Quarries of Light) or find yourself in a postcard setting around Saint-Sixte Chapel (Chapelle Saint-Sixte)…
As a land of welcome or as a birthplace, the Alpilles have inspired numerous illustrious artists. Be it Vincent van Gogh, Charles Gounod or Alphonse Daudet, they all put down roots in the picturesque villages of the Alpilles.
