Cathédrale Saint-Sauveur

Why go

The mix of styles is unusually easy to compare as you move through the cathedral. Look for the older baptistery, then the changing shapes of the naves and the cloister. The Burning Bush triptych is another draw when it is open to visitors, so treat it as a possible extra rather than the sole reason to come.

What to look for

• The naves bring Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque forms together.
• The medieval cloister offers a quieter architectural contrast.
• The Burning Bush triptych adds a painted contrast to the cathedral’s layered architecture.

Useful to know

• Pair the cathedral with a walk through Aix's old town and Cours Mirabeau.
• Check the cathedral's current visitor information if the triptych is a priority.
