AIX-EN-PROVENCE
HISTORY
The history of Aix really began In the year 122 B.C., when the Romans demolished Entremont and
settled on a shelf rich In hot and cold sprIngs. Thus Aquae Sextiae was born.
In the Middle Ages, after the Roman colony was abandoned, Aix became the place of residence of
the sovereign counts of Provence and followed its callIng as the regional centre of Provence and an
important focus for trade and craftsmanship.
Aix founded its University In 1409. After a few eventful centuries, foreign wards, the turmoil of the
Revolution and a major economic recession, Aix-en-Provence recovered and further developed its
university, judicial and cultural roles. Over the centuries many artists have lived In this city, drawn by
its lumInosity. Paul Cézanne was born there. Aix-en-Provence is now a young, lively and animated
city all year round, with its population of 40 000 students.

AIX, PAUL CEZANNE’S HOME TOWN
He is unquestionably the most famous personality In town. After a
period of Romanticism, he discovered Impressionism and then Invented
" a new art ", of which he called himself “the "primitive". His quest for
expression is revealed through his series of works: portraits, still life,
landscapes, and bathers. PaInted In oil or watercolour, they all reveal
the work of an obstInate craftsman. He may have left the town of Aixen-Provence, but to return stronger.

”There is no medicIne like hope, no Incentive so great, and
no tonic so powerful, as expectation of somethIng better
tomorrow…”
"Incentive travel rewards those who have best met a commercial challenge by takIng them together to a specific
destInation. Incentive travel is a worthwhile idea, both for
In-house sales forces and to motivate the external distribution networks."
AN INCENTIVE TRIP
- rewards staff and gives a fantastic event to remember.
- emphasises the value of the company: Southern destIna
tion, excitIng activities, prestigious and outstandIng venues
which emphasise the value of the participants, and hence
the company
- reInforces relationships In a different context, and creates

Situated In the Luberon, for several years Château de Val
Joanis bore the coat of arms of Jean de Joanis, Secretary
of KIng Louis III of Naples. Rediscovered In 1977 by JeanLouis Chancel, the castle has 186 hectares of vIneyards. The
jewel of the property, aside from its wInes, is the garden
created In 1978 by Mme Chancel. There is wIne tastIng at

UNEXPECTED AIX: OUR CURIOUS ANCESTORS
Half-day. A walk full of funny and sometimes wicked anecdotes …“Unexpected Aix” is a walk through the city with
street storyteller Jean-Pierre Cassely. UsIng the names of
streets and monuments and the commemorative plaques
on buildIngs, he will describe great and small moments In
the life of Aix past and present: anecdotes that are sometimes unheard of, sometimes surprisIng, at times comical,
but always fascInatIng.
Let him take you back In time like an unseen observer,
listenIng to the people and stories that stirred "the loveliest
city In France".
BehInd the thick walls of the Cours Mirabeau mansions
flows a history that is sometimes as warm as the water of
its fountaIns …
AIX, CITY OF WATER, CITY OF ZOLA
Half-day. The city with many fountaIns owes its reputation
to the thermal water which feeds them. Even In the time
of Zola and Cézanne, official analyses had already shown
that it could be drunk or used for bathIng In the treatment
of illnesses.
In 1858 Emile Zola, who was then only 18, left Aix-en-Provence
for Paris. He had grown up In Aix from his early childhood
to the end of his teenage years, and it was the place of his
best and worst memories.
"Aix, City of water, City of Zola" is your chance to discover
the world of the young Zola before his decisive departure
for Paris which was to mark the start of his writIng career.
"Stubborn and unsociable, puny and pensive", Cézanne
wrote of his friend Zola. As you sit at the edge of the most
beautiful fountaIns listenIng to a storyteller, you will relive
Zola's young years, discoverIng events In his life that will give
you a better understandIng of his work and personality. The
tour of Aix and its fountaIns will offer you a glimpse of the
artist's passionate relationship with the city, and particularly
with its water, the recurrIng theme of his youth, a symbol
of both pleasure and sufferIng.
Listen to the gentle, soothIng sound of the water of the
fountaIns and embark on a discovery of Zola as you never
imagIned him.
"I have already swum In the water of the SeIne. But here,
there is no cool sprIng to freshen the wIne; here, there is no
Cézanne with his great imagInation, his cheerful and spicy
conversation!" (Letter from Emile Zola to Paul Cézanne,
14 June 1858).
