Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, powerfully built like a castle on the outside, on the interior, a sumptuous palace.
It was built as a home for the Popes because during the 14th century the Popes left the Vatican in Rome where they had always ruled from and relocated to Avignon here in France staying for nearly 100 years making this the most important center of power in Europe for a century, the city's Golden Period during which great mansions were built. Money flowed in, the wall was constructed around the town for protection. They created a dazzling palace fitting to their high position of authority and wealth filled with the finest furniture and artworks creating a massive structure 15,000 square meters in area, about four times bigger than the typical Gothic cathedral.
Then walk a few minutes north from the Place du Palais into a lovely public park called the Roche des Doms, resting on the top of a small hill overlooking the Old Town. From the ramparts take in the beautiful views across the rooftops of the city and across the Rhône River. Coming down will bring you to the Pont St-Bénezet, Avignon's legendary bridge built in the late 12th century and another UNESCO World Heritage Site.
One of Avignon's major museums is an art museum, called the Musée Calvet and is located in the lower section of Rue Joseph Vernet. The museum is set in a magnificent 18th-century mansion with collections of fine art and decorative pieces from the 15th through 20th centuries. You’ll find excellent paintings in here representing most of the important phases of art history.

Historic Centre of Avignon: Papal Palace, Episcopal Ensemble and Avignon Bridge (UNESCO/NHK)
In the 14th century, this city in the South of France was the seat of the papacy. The Palais des Papes, an austere-looking fortress lavishly decorated by Simone Martini and Matteo Giovanetti, dominates the city, the surrounding ramparts and the remains of a 12th-century bridge over the Rhone. Beneath this outstanding example of Gothic architecture, the Petit Palais and the Romanesque Cathedral of Notre-Dame-des-Doms complete an exceptional ...

Places to see in ( Avignon - France ) Musee du Petit Palais
The Musée du Petit Palais is a museum and art gallery in Avignon, southern France. It opened in 1976 and has an exceptional collection of Renaissance paintings of the Avignon school as well as from Italy, which reunites many primitives from the collection of Giampietro Campana. It is housed in a 14th-century building at the north side of the square overlooked by the Palais des Papes.
Named Petit Palais to distinguish it from the Palais des Papes, the original structure was built during the period of the Avignon Papacy by Cardinal Bérenger Fredoli the Elder in around 1318–20. The palace and a few neighbouring buildings were bought on de Frédol's death in 1323 by Cardinal Arnaud de Via, nephew of the reigning Pope John XXII. When de Via died in 1335 Pope Benedict XII bought the building for use as the episcopal palace. The subsequent building work created an interior close to that of the present configuration with four wings around a cloister and a service court.
The building suffered during its use from 1396 as a fortified citadel during the Western Schism, and was a wreck by the time the war ended in 1411. In the second half of the 15th century, Bishop Alain de Coëtivy and his successor, Giuliano della Rovere (the future Pope Julius II) carried out restoration work, giving the Palace more or less its present appearance by 1503. Della Rovere arrived in Avignon in 1474, having been made bishop of Avignon and papal legate of Avignon by his uncle Pope Sixtus IV. He added new south and west facades in Italian Renaissance style (with oculi, a west-facing door surmounted with a triangular pediment, window drip-moldings and his insignia facing south) and, in 1487, a tower (which collapsed in 1767). The Palace became known as the Palace of the Archbishop when the city was promoted to an archbishopric soon after della Rovere took office.
During the French Revolution, the palace was nationalised and sold off, becoming a Catholic secondary school in 1826 and then in 1904, with the separation of the church and the state, a professional and technical school. The building was listed as a historic monument in 1910. The restoration work, began in 1961, was supervised by Jean Sonnier, the chief architect of the Monument historique, the national heritage organization in France.The building opened as a museum in 1976.

Palace of Fontainebleau, France
The Palace of Fontainebleau (/fɒntɪnˌbloʊ/; French pronunciation: [fɔ̃tɛnblo]) or Château de Fontainebleau is located 55 kilometres (34 miles) southeast of the centre of Paris, and is one of the largest French royal châteaux. The medieval castle and later château was the residence of French monarchs from Louis VII through Napoleon III. Napoleon I abdicated his throne there before being exiled to Elba. Today it is a national museum and a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is located in the commune of Fontainebleau.
Дворец Фонтенбло (фр. Château de Fontainebleau) — дворец эпохи Ренессанса во французском департаменте Сена и Марна, вокруг которого со временем сформировался город Фонтенбло. Здесь жили многие правители Франции начиная с Людовика VII и заканчивая Наполеоном III. Три монарха родились во дворце — Филипп IV Красивый, Генрих III Валуа и Людовик XIII.
В 1981 году дворец и парк Фонтенбло вошли в список объектов Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО во Франции.

Les Tuileries. Grands décors d'un palais disparu
Aujourd’hui disparu, le palais des Tuileries fut du règne de Louis XIV à sa destruction après la chute du Second Empire l’une des principales résidences des souverains français et l’une des plus somptueuses pour ses décors et ses fastes.
Le palais des Tuileries renaît aujourd’hui de ses cendres grâce aux Editions du patrimoine (editions-du-patrimoine.fr) et à l’ouvrage Les Tuileries. Grands décors d’un palais disparu à la fois très documenté et richement illustré.
Le lecteur découvrira, au fil des pages, l’histoire et l’architecture de cette grande demeure royale et impériale, de Catherine de Médicis à Napoléon III. Les auteurs, parmi lesquels plusieurs conservateurs du musée du Louvre, nous font également découvrir les décors et l’ameublement qui en ont fait le faste : peintures, sculptures, tapisseries, lambris, bras de lumière, lustres, commodes, consoles, bureaux, chaises… aujourd’hui dispersés entre collections publiques et personnes privées, ou simplement disparus. Les photographies d’époque livrent un témoignage poignant de l’état des Tuileries sous le Second Empire ; des photographies contemporaines des objets retrouvés permettent d’évoquer cette grandeur évanouie.
De constructions en modifications, de décorations en adaptations, on voit ainsi revivre, non sans émotion, ce magnifique palais.
