About Vaucluse
Vaucluse is a department in southeast France. Surrounded by medieval ramparts, the city of Avignon is known for its huge Palace of the Popes, a 14th-century fortress. Nearby, on the Rhône, are the remains of the medieval Avignon Bridge. The town of Orange has preserved Roman structures, such as the Ancient Theater of Orange and Triumphal Arch. Mont Ventoux is a well-known mountain featured in the Tour de France race.
