Hôtel Maynier d'Oppède
Aix en Provence - Monument
The Hôtel Maynier d'Oppède, opposite the Archbishop's Palace, is named after a very old family of magistrates.
Bought in 1730 from the Forbin d’Oppède family, its frontage was rebuilt in 1757 by the architect Georges Vallon and the sculptor Chastel for the President of the Parliament, Etienne de Thomassin de Saint Paul.
It now houses the Institute of French Studies for Foreign Students.
During the Festival of Lyric Art, concerts and recitals are held in its shady courtyard.

Figs
Francis lived happily close beside his tree...
Picked ripe from the tree, figs are simply to die for. They can also be scattered on trays and left to dry in the sun for 3 days: "That's the best way to keep your figs all winter – we serve figs at Christmas as one of Provence's famous 13 Desserts," smiles Jacqueline Honoré.
Candied Fruit
A gourmet treat…
Provence has been famed for its candied fruit from time immemorial. In the early 16th century, the region was fairly impoverished. Fruit grew here in abundance, but much of it was lost every year.
