Open every day from 1st June to 30 September State owned and managed by the Centre for National Monuments, the site was originally occupied by a vast complex of thermal baths dating back to the 4th century AD, which was gradually revealed through archaeological excavations conducted since the 1940s. A tithe house, religious and private structures have been housed under the same roof in medieval and modern times. In 1513, Balthazar de Sade had a hôtel particulier (detached private house) built in a combination of Gothic and Renaissance styles. The site as it appears today is the result of a joint effort of consolidation and restoration carried out on the buildings in the early 20th century by the architect Jules Formigé and Henri Rolland, Director of Antiquités de Provence. The aim was to conserve Glanum's archaeological collections there and attract researchers.
