The tower of Crest is a true masterpiece. Consisting of three interlocking towers, this tower was part of an old fortress and then became a prison. This architectural gem bears witness to a long history and medieval prison life.
From the top of the tower, you have breathtaking views of the Drôme valley and the Ardèche mountains.
The visit is worth the detour, with the entertainment throughout the year that takes you on a journey through time.

Something different... a French fortification in the form of a voluminous tower... wonderful to explore on your own up to the roof... wonderful panoramic view up here!

Magnificent view of the Drôme from the top of the tower. The visit is essential because it is very well documented. You can also appreciate the famous engraving of d'Artagnan's face!
