When to go to Saint-Rémy-de-Provence?

Under the Alpilles, Saint-Rémy keeps Glanum at its southern gate: a Greek then Roman town whose arch and mausoleum never fell, standing right by the road. Next door, the cloister of Saint-Paul-de-Mausole is the asylum where Van Gogh painted more than a hundred and fifty canvases in a single year. On Wednesdays the market takes the whole centre.
