About the Palais des Papes
The Palais des Papes, or Palace of the Popes, in Avignon, Southern France, ranks among the biggest and most significant Gothic buildings of medieval Europe. Once both a fortress and a palace, it served in the 14th century as a seat of Western Christianity. Six papal conclaves met there, with elections between 1334 and 1394, including Benedict XII (1334) and Benedict XIII (1394). In 1995 it became a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its outstanding architecture and its historical importance to the papacy.
The Palais consists of two joined buildings: the older palace of Benedict XII, on the rock of Doms, and the new palace of Clement VI. Together they form one of the largest Gothic buildings of the Middle Ages, and one of the finest examples of International Gothic. The site is a rocky outcrop on Avignon's northern edge, above the Rhône, and it had held the old episcopal palace. Reconstruction began in earnest under Benedict XII (1334–42) and continued under his successors until 1364. His Palais Vieux was a much larger, heavily fortified building centered on a cloister, with four wings flanked by high towers.
Clement VI, followed by Innocent VI and then Urban V, expanded the building into the Palais Neuf. Clement VI commissioned the architect Jean de Louvres, who built a new tower, adjoining buildings and a Grand Chapel 52 m (171 ft) long. Innocent VI added two towers and a bridge, and Urban V completed the main courtyard. At the time, the papal library was Europe's largest, holding over 2,000 volumes. Revolutionary forces seized and sacked the Palais during the French Revolution. In 1906 it was vacated and turned into a national museum.
