Jewish legacy in Aix-en-Provence

In the Cardeurs district, right in the center, relive the history of the Jewish families of Aix-en-Provence. Illustrious Aixois, such as the renowned composer Darius Milhaud or the Bédarrides brothers, mayors of the city in the 19th century, bear witness to the rich, long and eventful history of this community, whose presence is recorded since 1342. A walk will take us through the anciano carriero de la Jutarie (Jewish Street), the Jewish Well Street and the ancient synagogue Street.
