The guided tour offers the opportunity to discover the 17th century courtyard of the Gailhard Guiran hotel, while evoking its construction and history.
On the first floor, we explore the history of the Nîmes Academy, one of the oldest learned societies in France, founded in 1682 by a letter patent of Louis XIV. There are also reception rooms, the work room and the library.
Finally, the visit ends in the large session room, where we discuss the current functioning of the academy, its activities and its role within the city.
