Located near the Palais des Papes, the remains of Saint-Martial Cloister date back to the 14th century, offering a glimpse into Avignon’s religious past. What you see are stone arches and sculpted capitals from a Benedictine abbey, showcasing Romanesque and Gothic styles. Despite damage from the French Revolution, these fragments still convey a solemn charm. Accessible via an old courtyard, it’s a restful spot off the main tourist route. Interpretive panels offer insight into its storied past, making it a worthwhile photo stop. Pause amid the weathered stones to imagine the cloister’s tranquil gardens, a serene moment before exploring Avignon’s other historic gems.
