The former windmill in Le Tholonet was once rented by the painter Cézanne as a studio and storage space. The building is located directly on the "Route Cézanne," making it a perfect place to combine culture with road cycling.

Originally, the church was in the shape of a Latin cross and consisted only of the nave, transept, bell tower, and watchtowers to the north and south of the choir, as well as the Hélion de Villeneuve chapel (14th century) with its beautiful ribbed vault featuring liernes and tiercerons. Outside, the twenty or so stepped buttresses topped with pinnacles are hidden on Rue Cardinale by the unimpressive buildings attached to the monument in the 17th century. The 67-meter-high bell tower was completed in 1376. The priory, now the Granet Museum, served both as the residence of the knights and as a hospice where pilgrims were welcomed and the sick cared for. The church and the priory were built in the fields, outside the city walls. They were set into the central vista of the Mazarin Quarter in the 17th century, built by Michel de Mazarin, brother of Louis XIV's minister. The building was remodeled during the 17th century by Prior Jean-Claude Viany, who had six chapels built within the buttresses and, for symmetry, added the south turret similar to the one on the north side that provides access to the bell tower. In 2018, after 225 years, the church received three new bells for its carillon, out of the four that comprise it. The three previous bells had been cast in 1793 during Napoleon's Italian campaign.

In its current form, the Church of Saint-Jean-de-Malte is the first entirely Gothic church in Provence. It was built between 1270 and 1280 by the Knights Hospitaller of Saint John of Jerusalem, replacing an older building whose dedication is known to have been celebrated by Cardinal Pierre de Colmieu on May 3, 1251. The lightness and elegance of the Gothic rib vaults, which support the pillars, give the nave a dynamic and rhythmic quality that earned it the nickname "Sainte-Chapelle of the South." The side windows are less open than those in churches in the Île-de-France region, but the apse window is exceptionally large for Provence. The overall effect was restored during the recent restoration work carried out in 1996, by highlighting the two-tone effect of the ochre wall surfaces and the white architectural elements, restoring to the space its luminosity, simplicity, elegance, and dynamism. The current building was constructed as the mausoleum of the Counts of Provence: – the tomb of Raymond Berenger V and his wife Beatrice of Savoy in the north transept – the tombs of Beatrice of Provence and her husband Charles I of Anjou, King of Naples, which were destroyed during the French Revolution. This church can be considered a kind of ‘Provençal Saint-Denis’.

From 1857 to 1862, Cézanne studied drawing and copied paintings exhibited at the Granet Museum, which adjoined the Church of St. John of Malta. The museum's curator, Henri Pontier, a true visionary, is said to have declared, "As long as I live, no work by Cézanne will enter our collections!" Thus, despite the immense success of this native of Aix-en-Provence, no major works by him grace the museum's walls.
