EDITO

A C C E S S

Arles is listed as a UNESCO world heritage of humanity site for three reasons :

• its historic old city center and its Roman and Romanesque monuments,

• the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela,

• a natural space of worldwide interest: the Camargue is listed as part of the world network of biosphere reserves

Arles, an inspiring city which has revealed many artists :• The dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, who lived in Arles for fifteen months. His stay in Arles corresponds to his most creative period. Many places that he painted during his stay are still visible today.

• Pablo Picasso who, in 1971, two years before his death, decided to offer fifty-seven drawings to the city. This exceptional donation is proof of his special attachment to Arles, based on his Andalusian passion for bullfighting and especially on the irresistible attraction of the “ghost” of Van Gogh.

• Christian Lacroix, famous couturier, an Arles native, who spent his childhood in the corridors of the Réattu Museum, where he discovered the “Couturière’s Workshop” by Antoine Raspal.

• The Gypsy Kings, internationally famous for their gypsy music, founded by Chico.

• The Lee Ufan Foundation, named for a world-renowned Korean artist, will be established in Arles in 2019.

• The Luma Foundation is equipping the city with a cultural center worthy of that of the largest world metropolises thanks to the work of famous architects such as Frank Gehry, Annabelle Selldorf and Bas Smets.

Arles, a human-sized city, provides :• many charming hotels of which certain have been decorated by famous interior architects,

• diversified restaurants, including two which have received stars in the Michelin guidebook,

• a city center with unique shops to discover,

• museums exhibiting different facets of Arles: Roman times in the Arles archaeological museum, nature in the Camargue museum, Fine Arts in the Réattu Museum, contemporary art at the Arles Vincent van Gogh Foundation, and the soon to reopen Museon Arlaten with its Provençal traditions.
