  • The construction of the Renaissance-style castle was ordered by Henri de Rovilhasc. Built between 1539 and 1544 the final appearance was exactly as it is today.

  • This castle, built in the 12th century, had thick fortified walls and an imposing dungeon which protected the Comtadine plain. In 1538, the castle passed into the hands of Henri De Rovigliasc who joined the pontifical court. He transformed the building, thus making it one of the most splendid Renaissance buildings in the region. The castle also offers a magnificent view of the Comtat Venaissin Plain.
