Built at the request of the Consul d´Albertas in the middle of the 17th century, this palace, a gem of Provençal baroque art, dates from the visit of Anne of Austria to Apt on pilgrimage. It is located in a shady little square in the middle of the aristocratic old town of Apt, near Saint Anne’s Cathedral.
This private residence is an exceptional historic monument, unique in Provence.
The quality of its baroque interior decoration, with its opulent plasterwork, sumptuous frescoes and painted ceilings, the warm glow of gold and the masterly execution of the decorative themes place this building on a par with the most beautiful baroque French and European palaces. The quality of the work is of international standard.
The project to renovate it was awarded first prize by the Sotheby’s Foundation in 2000.
