    Magnificent view of the castle from below.

    The Château de Joux is an emblematic monument of Franche-Comté. Located 5km from Pontarlier and 15km from the Swiss border, the castle dominates the Passage de la Cluse by around a hundred meters, a narrow natural passage which allows you to cross the Jura Massif. This military and commercial route connects the roads of Champagne, Flanders and Haute-Saône to Italy and Switzerland.

    The Château de Joux is open from April 1 to November 15, 2023. To check the dates for next years on the site: chateaudejoux.com/infos-pratiques
    Visiting times are also very different depending on the season and are indicated there.
