Named Petit Palais to recognize it from the Palais des Papes, the first structure was worked amid the time of the Avignon Papacy via Cardinal Berenger Fredoli the Elder in around 1318– 20.
The resulting building work made an inside near that of the present design with four wings around a group and an administration court. The building experienced during its utilization 1396 as a sustained fortress amid the Western Schism, and was a disaster area when the war finished in 1411. In the second 50% of the fifteenth century, Bishop Alain de Coetivy and his successor, Giuliano della Rovere did rebuilding work, giving the Palace pretty much its present appearance by 1503.
