Cours Mirabeau
Encyclopedia : C : CO : COU : Cours Mirabeau
The Cours Mirabeau is a wide thoroughfare in Aix-en-Provence, France.
The street has wide sidewalks planted with double rows of plane-trees. Cours Mirabeau is decorated by fountains, the most notable of which is La Rotonde, a large fountain that makes up a roundabout at one end of the street. The street also divides Aix into two portions, the new town, which extends to the south and west, and the old town, which lies to the north with its wide but irregular streets and its old mansions dating from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.
