A little history
The city was founded by the Gallo-Romans of the second Gallic legion in 35 before JC. Arausio (Orange) was strongly influenced by the Gallo-Roman culture and numerous buildings still prove this nowadays, such as the Arch of Triumph or the Antique Theatre!
In 412, the city was pillaged by the Visigoths. Orange was conquered by the Francs and their allies, the Burgundy Army, in 508. The city was taken by the Ostrogoths the flowing year.
Orange later belonged to the Kingdom of Burgundy. It was given the principality status in 1163 and obtained various privileges.
During the first religion war of 1562, Protestants took down the cathedral’s bell tower and burnt the relics. They were massacred by the Pope’s army. In 1572, the city is retaken by the Protestants.
Orange was occupied numerous times by the French between 1673 and 1713. Orange was definitively annexed by France in 1713, following the Utrecht Treaty.
The French Revolution was a dark period for Orange as many executions took place. The judges and prosecutors of the court were guillotined on June 26th, 1795.
During the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, a couple floods damaged the city.
