Caumont Centre d'Art

Fodor's Choice

Part of the Culturespaces network of museums and monuments and one of Aix's top cultural attractions, this art center is housed in the Hôtel de Caumont, a spectacular 18th-century mansion. It hosts two world-class art exhibitions per year in beautifully conceived spaces, and there are daily screenings of the film Cézanne in the Aix Region. The elegant gardens have been painstakingly restored to their original layout, and you can enjoy a drink, light lunch, or dessert in the garden restaurant. The indoor Café Caumont is easily Aix's most elegant. The center also hosts a series of jazz and classical music performances.
