Town in Bouches-du-Rhône département, southwest France, on the Arles canal and the left bank of the Rhône, at the head of the Camargue delta; economic activities are tourism and agriculture, and it is in an important fruit- and vine-growing district. Roman relics include an aqueduct, baths, and a 21, 000-spectator amphitheatre now used for bullfighting and plays. The Romanesque-Provençal church of St Trophime, formerly an archiepiscopal cathedral, has fine cloisters and a notable 12th-century portal. The Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh lived here 1888–89, during which time he painted some of his major works.
