Museums / Art Galleries in Les Baux-de-Provence
The Alpilles > Les Baux-de-Provence
Now a highly popular site in Provence, the Carrières des Lumières are located at the foot of the town of Les Baux-de-Provence, in the heart of the Alpilles, in a truly mysterious area: the Val d’Enfer. Since 2012, the Carrières des Lumières put forward digital, immersive and contemporary exhibitions. Young and old alike come to live a unique experience, explore limitless universes, and let themselves be carried away to the heart of Art.
This light show in an old stone quarry near Les Baux de Provence is well worth a visit.
There are always 2 shows on different subjects that follow each other in a loop. The 2 shows last about 1 hour.
The 2024 programme will focus on Orientalist painters (Ingres, Delacroix, Gérôme...) and on Egyptian Pharaohs (from Cheops to Ramses II).
You can arrive at any time during the opening hours until one hour before closing time, and stay as long as you like until closing time.
It's always better to book in advance, so you can cut the queue to get in if it's busy. You can book online on the website
