Théâtre de l'Archevêché
With its grand staircase, medieval arches and 17th century wings enclosing an almost square space, the courtyard of the former archbishop’s palace in Aix is a jewel in the architectural crown of Aix-en-Provence and one of the locations that most memorably evokes the past of its historic centre.

It was last refurbished in 1998, when the facades were restored and work was undertaken to create a special relationship between stage and audience.
