Roman Arch of Cavaillon
The Roman Arch dates from the 1st century AD. It originally stood in the heart of the ancient city of Cavaillon and was moved to its present location at the end of the 19th century.
Classified as a Historic Monument in 1840, it is the oldest monument in the town.
Cavaillon, an ancient Roman colony, has preserved the elevation of this arch, which was originally located on the ancient forum of the town (Place de Cabassole) where it was probably intended to mark the monumental entrance to a public square.
It was transferred in 1879-1880 to its present location (Place du Clos).
