Terrain des peintres

This garden features an elevated terrace that provides direct views of Mont Sainte-Victoire and the surrounding Provençal landscape from multiple angles.

From 1902 to 1906, painter Paul Cézanne created numerous paintings of Mont Sainte-Victoire while working at this specific location in Aix-en-Provence.

Metal reproductions of Cézanne's paintings are placed at the exact spots where the artist set up his easel, allowing visitors to compare the artwork with reality.

The observation point remains open every day without entry fees and connects to a walking path leading to both Cézanne's Studio and the Entremont archaeological site.

Mediterranean plants grow on traditional stone terraces called 'restanques', creating natural levels that follow the terrain's natural elevation changes.
