Description

Avignon [aviˈɲɔ̃] er en by og kommune i Provence i Sydfrankrig ved den østlige bred af Rhône med 91.143 indbyggere, hvoraf omkring 15.000 bor inden for bymurene. Avignon er sæde for præfekturet og den største by i departementet Vaucluse. Da Avignon var pavens sæde fra 1309 til 1376 - og under den efterfølgende vestlige skisme - bærer byen tilnavnet "Pavens by". Den gamle bydel i Avignon med sine pragtfulde, middelalderlige huse er omgivet af en intakt og imponerende befæstningsmur. Den gamle by med den gotiske pavemiddag fra det 14. århundrede, biskoppens anlæg, Rocher des Doms og den berømte bro, Pont Saint-Bénézet, er en del af UNESCOs verdensarv. Denne bro er kendt fra en folkesang.
