Les Deux Garcons, which was a noted gathering place in Aix, was set on fire on 30 November 2019 at approximately 11:50PM. The surveillance cameras on the street and in the restaurant went down at 11:30P.
Restoration has been difficult, because the building is on the list of historic places. It is being renovated by Paddy McKillen, the Irish property magnate and owner of Château LaCoste.
The château is a 600 acre property north of Aix-en-Provence with a vineyard, luxury hotel, restaurants, and art installations by Frank Gehry, Louise Bourgeois, Bob Dylan, Richard Rogers, and others.
