Beautiful little town, a must-see

Great place to picnic at the top with the option of a quick vin rouge at the tasting at the top

Worth seeing city wall with many gates and towers. More information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadtmauer_von_Avignon#%3A%7E%3Atext%3DDie_Stadtmauer_von_Avignon_ist%2C1902_as_Monument_historique_einstierf.?wprov=sfla1

When it came to power, French kings Philip the Handsome and John the Good were determined to assert their position against the Avignon popes! The royal symbol of power was built in the 1360's on Mont Andaon, which overlooks Villeneuve. The impressive fortress housed permanent barracks, a court of law and a prison, which still contains 18th and 19th century doodles made by prisoners.

Interesting and impressive highlight away from the city center. Just the way from downtown Avignon to here is very, very worth seeing. Fantastic prospects.
