The tourist information office of Alès is located in the city center, right next to the city hall.
This building is located in the remains of the former church of the Cordeliers, dating from the 11th century, which also housed the municipal theater of Alès until the 1960s.

The tourist information office of Alès offers a variety of documentation on tourist sites, hikes and accommodations,
restaurants, events, in partnership with our local and regional actors.
