What to expect
Begin your Arles adventure at Alyscamps, an ancient Roman necropolis. Explore this UNESCO site that captivated Van Gogh, inspiring four paintings. Discover its rich history and the artist's connection to this hauntingly beautiful place.
Jardin d'Ete
Discover Jardin d'Eté, a delightful urban park that inspired Van Gogh. Enjoy fountains and playgrounds with the Roman amphitheatre as a backdrop. Experience the garden's beauty that the artist once described as a poetic dreamscape.
Arles Arena
Explore the Roman Arena, a 2000-year-old marvel still in use today. Van Gogh captured its vibrant atmosphere in his painting "Arena in Arles". Imagine the spectacles and crowds that inspired the artist's energetic brushstrokes.
Arles
Wander down Rue Voltaire, a picturesque street that seems frozen in time. Colorful awnings, pastel shutters, and lively cafes create scenes reminiscent of Van Gogh's paintings. Immerse yourself in the timeless charm that inspired the artist.
The Yellow House
Stand where Van Gogh's "Yellow House" once stood. This corner, now a restaurant, was the artist's beloved home. Imagine the vibrant yellow building and passing trains that inspired his famous painting and connection to nature.
And the Stars Easel
Experience the scene of Van Gogh's "Starry Night Over the Rhone". This tranquil painting captures the rich night colors and reflections on the river. Compare the serene atmosphere to the artist's more famous "Starry Night".
Explore Musée Réattu, which Van Gogh once harshly criticized. His disdain contrasts with his love for Arles' women. Consider how the artist's struggles and lack of recognition may have influenced his views on other artists' works.
Le Café Van Gogh
Visit Le Café Van Gogh, a modern recreation of the cafe in the artist's famous painting. Although not the original site, it offers an immersive experience. Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere that once inspired Van Gogh's masterpiece.
Explore Place du Forum, once Arles' Roman center. See the ancient column in Nord-Pinus Hotel. Van Gogh painted "Café Terrace at Night" here, capturing vibrant nighttime colors and challenging artistic conventions of his era.
Visit the Vincent van Gogh Foundation, housed in Hôtel Léautaud de Donines. This museum focuses on Van Gogh's influence on modern artists rather than displaying his famous works. Explore the artist's enduring legacy in Arles.
Stairway Trinquetaille Bridge (Van Gogh circuit)
Stand where Van Gogh painted "The Bridge of Trinquetaille". Experience the vivid colors he described - the absinthe-hued sky and river, lilac quays, and blue bridge. Observe the scene that inspired his emotionally raw artwork.
Pont de Trinquetaille
Experience the enchanting Pont de Trinquetaille in Arles, immerse in Van Gogh's inspiration, and carry home a piece of its magic.
