Avignon Cathedral, or Cathédrale Notre-Dame des Doms, dates back to the 12th century and features Romanesque architectural elements that photo-travelers will find captivating. Notable for its stunning gilded statue of the Virgin Mary atop the bell tower, the cathedral offers sweeping views of the Rhône River and the Pont d'Avignon from its elevated position adjacent to the Palais des Papes. Inside, capture the intricate Baroque altar, Gothic choir, and beautifully restored frescoes. Visit in the late afternoon for optimal natural lighting that enhances the stone façades and intricate details. Early morning is ideal for avoiding crowds and getting clear, crisp photos of the exterior.
