THE most amazing example of the Renaissance architecture in Provence!
Masterpiece of the Provençal Renaissance style, enjoy its courtyard and book for a visit of the Potery Museum.
Unfortunately burnt in 1780 and then in 1792, you only can see ruined remains. There are now a few facades and cellars (nearly 1000m2 rehabilitated).
Its architecture inspired by the greatest chateaux of the Ile de France (the Louvre, Ecouen, Anet) and the elegant proportions of its façades deserve to be dwelt on.
