マラタヴェルヌの洞窟・トップ8

The Château des Adhémar in Montélimar is a stunning example of medieval architecture and a significant landmark in the Drôme region. Originally built in the 11th century by the Counts of Toulouse, it was expanded into a magnificent palace by the Adhémar family in the 12th century. Over the centuries, it has served as a fortress, citadel, and prison. Today, it is a publicly accessible monument historique and offers a fascinating insight into the region's history. Visitors can admire the well-preserved Romanesque architectural features and enjoy the breathtaking views from the battlements.

Ruins of an old castle. Two old towers are the most preserved. The old church right next door is worth a visit. Plus, from the base of the towers, you can enjoy a sweeping view of the countryside!

nice little walk visiting the town center of Montelimar with a stop at the restaurant Le Troquet next to the post office

you have to earn it - especially in the summer - but you'll get a nice view. Waterpoint and toilets but no coffee or restaurant

From the small village of La Touche, after a beautiful but not very easy hike (good hiking shoes 🥾 / sure-footedness) you reach this beautiful castle ruin over a rocky ridge. The well-preserved/renovated tower is open for free visits at certain times (currently: 2:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. except on Saturdays and Sundays).

More than 10km from Grignan, Roussas is an old fortified village, perched on top of a rocky peak. You can find the remains of the 12th century castle.

This very fine example of a fortified castle is old: the keep and its enclosure date from the 12th century. The very pretty Saint-Blaise chapel is also part of the site and can be visited. From the ruins of this building, you will have a very beautiful view of the Rhône valleys and those surrounding them.

Beautiful historic site and view of the region. Good starting point or destination for hiking or mountain biking
