A unique heritage
The Grand Hôtel d'Orange is ideally located in the city, allowing you to easily reach the many Roman remains and historical monuments on foot. The two most important witnesses of the Roman era in the city are the Arc de Triomphe and the Ancient Theatre, both classified as UNESCO World Heritage sites and only a 1.5-minute walk from the hotel.
In addition to discovering the heritage of Orange, feel free to explore the region and uncover treasures the whole world envies: the surrounding vineyards and their prestigious appellations, Avignon and the Palais des Papes, the Dentelles de Montmirail, Isle-sur-Sorgue, the Ochre Trail…
So many reasons to extend your stay at the Grand Hôtel d'Orange.
For your transportation and/or visits, think "eco-mobility": bicycle, electric bike, city bus, or the little tourist train... You’ll reduce your environmental impact while discovering the charms of our heritage.
UNESCO World Heritage The Ancient Theatre
Built during the reign of Augustus in the 1st century BC by the veterans of Julius Caesar’s Second Legion, the Ancient Theatre is a striking testament to Roman civilization. It is one of the best-preserved Roman theatres in the world and still features its impressive outer wall (or stage wall) with its original elevation: 104 meters long and 35 meters high.
Today, the theatre hosts tens of thousands of spectators every year for various summer events, including the famous Chorégies.
The audio-guided tour brings the history of the monument to life; you can also explore the Museum of Art and History, which traces the rich history of Orange from ancient times to the 20th century.
