HISTORY AND HERITAGE
Aix-en-Provence boasts a rich history that dates back to its founding in 123 BC by the Romans, who named it Aquae Sextiae. This strategic location became a vital center for trade and culture in the region. The city was renowned for its thermal springs, which attracted visitors seeking both relaxation and healing. The remnants of Roman influence are still evident today, with well-preserved ruins, such as the ancient Roman forum and the spectacular aqueduct, known as the Pont de l'Arc. Travelers can wander through the streets and admire the architecture that speaks to the city's illustrious past.
