The Moulin Saint-Julien offers a varied cultural and festive programme in the town centre. It plays an active role in the Action Cœur de Ville urban renewal programme, which supports the revitalisation of Cavaillon’s historic centre.

Ideally located between Cours Gambetta, the town centre and the Gambetta car park, the site known as “Les Glacières” remained derelict for several years before undergoing a major transformation.

Before housing the Glacières Martin ice works, the building was used as a power station. Going back even further, it stood on the site of the Moulin des Hospices Saint-Julien, whose history dates back to the 12th century.

Its history is closely linked to that of the Canal Saint-Julien, which contributed to Cavaillon’s agricultural development and still flows beneath the audience’s feet today.
