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).
