Cezanne’s Provence
Enter the world of Cézanne...
- Duration: 7-8 hours
- Season: Year-round (especially enjoyable in spring and autumn)
For this original experience, we set off to uncover the secrets behind Provençal santons in a historic workshop founded in 1934. You’ll discover the key steps of the process, from shaping to molding, and step into a tradition that is still very much alive today. We then continue with a visit to Cézanne’s Studio, an intimate, light-filled place, before taking the artist’s route: Mont Sainte-Victoire gradually reveals itself, leading to the perfect viewpoint for a picnic under the pines, featuring local specialties.
In the afternoon, the experience continues with a visit to an olive oil mill and a tasting, before ending the day with a final surprise stop, discreet and delicious.
