Built on a rocky spur in the heart of the Alpilles mountains, Château des Baux offers a breathtaking view over Provence. Discover the tumultuous history of the Lords of Les Baux and their medieval fortress.
Dominating the Baux valley from the top of its steep rock, the Château des Baux-de-Provence is an absolutely spectacular site! Its ghostly remains stand out against a backdrop of blue sky, vineyards and olive groves like the prow of a ship, while the elegantly restored village and its shopping street lean towards the stern.
