Tarascon: Where the Rhône Meets History and Legend

Set between Avignon and Arles on the banks of the Rhône, Tarascon invites you to discover a land of history, culture and Provençal tradition. Overlooked by its majestic medieval castle, the town charms with its narrow streets, shaded squares and southern atmosphere.

Wander through the historic center, visit King René's castle, explore the Sainte-Marthe collegiate church and learn the tale of the mythical Tarasque. Nearby, the Crau plain, the Camargue and the Alpilles offer wild and sunlit landscapes.

Tarascon is a perfect destination for lovers of heritage, legend and natural beauty.
