Despite its current state, which is essentially in ruins, the castle (or more accurately, Castrum) of Allègre remains impressive and bears witness to nearly 10 centuries of history. It features towers and stately homes, a double rampart, a chapel, and a village. Located at an altitude of 275 meters, overlooking the middle valley of the Cèze, the entire site covers one and a half hectares and offers a sublime panorama of Mont Bouquet and the entire Cévennes (orientation table). Very close to the D37, the tour is best done on foot after leaving your bike in the parking lot.

The stables are easy to miss, yet they are remarkable. The view from the castle is also very beautiful.
