JOURNEY HIGHLIGHTS PALACE OF THE POPES. Inspired by conflicts in Rome, Pope Clement V moved the papal court to Avignon in 1309. He built the Gothicstyle Palace of the Popes, which was home to seven popes in as many decades. Today, it still overlooks Avignon—symbolic of a brief time when this river town was the cultural and religious center of the known world.
