Château des Baux-de-Provence

A stone vessel with an imposing silhouette, the Château des Baux-de-Provence reveals the tumultuous past of the Lords of Les Baux.

From the top of its rocky spur, it offers an exceptional panorama of Provence. Venture into its remains!

Situated on a strategic site, the medieval fortress was home to the illustrious des Baux family, who claimed to be descendants of the magician Balthazar. Since then, the sixteen-pointed star has continued to point the way to the village and the castle.

The towers and keep are the most representative witnesses to the defensive past of the site, which can be visited all year round.
