Saint-Trophime cloister in Arles, Romanesque cloister in Arles, France

The cloister contains four covered galleries surrounding a square courtyard, featuring sculpted columns and capitals depicting biblical scenes and religious figures.

The cloister construction started in the 12th century with Romanesque north and east galleries, while Gothic south and west sections were completed in the 14th century.

The cloister serves as a starting point for pilgrims walking the Via Tolosana route to Santiago de Compostela through southern France.

Visitors can purchase combined tickets to access multiple heritage sites in Arles, with regular guided tours available in French throughout the year.

International experts created laser scans of the cloister to develop 3D models, enabling precise documentation of conservation methods and architectural details.
