The Château de Suze-la-Rousse is a 12th century medieval fortress with a 15th century Renaissance courtyard. It was transformed in the 16ᵉ then in the 18ᵉ century into a large residence in which it is possible to admire the paintings, stuccoes and plasterwork of the salons. The museography is dedicated to the history of the castle and to the world of vines and wine since it houses the University of Wine.

Built on a rocky outcrop, the medieval fortress of Suze-la-Rousse is a spectacular military structure protected by towers and a wall. In the 16th and 18th centuries it was converted into a large manor house. The severity of the external defenses, which tower over the fortified village, are contrasted by the Renaissance facades of the main courtyard and the interior richness of the paintings, stucco work and plasterwork in the living rooms (source: https://www.chateaux-ladrome.fr/fr/chateau -de-suze-la-rousse).

Pretty village surmounted by a castle.
