Cool from the outside. Didn’t go through the tour. I recommend Parker here and walking through the town to get to the small village on the other side.

Phillipe-le-Bel Tower has a 4.5 euro admission fee. After paying, you climb up the equivalent of 7 flights of stairs to get to a wide open terrace with a 360 degree view of the surrounding river and the city of Avignon. I really recommend it!

Only €4.50 entrance fee to a tower built in 1302 - 1350. Video displays on first floor and stunning views of Avignon and the River Rhone.

A definite must see for history buffs. I think this important monument is often overlooked because it’s not centrally located (within close proximity to the main sites). If you’re driving (or cycling) it wouldn’t take you long at all to get there. I walked from my hotel; it took me around 35 mins at a leisurely pace, with stopping time to take pictures along the way. Interesting place to visit, and the view from the top of the tower is worth the visit alone.

€4 per ticket and cash only. You can get a great view of the river and that’s pretty much it. If you are low on budget or time, you can skip this one.
