Built at the end of the 15th century by Bonifacio d'Avise, the castle consists of a three-storey building flanked by a quadrangular tower. The entrance door features the motto of the lords of Avise: "Qui tost Avise tart se repent". Currently restored and open to visits, it is used for events and temporary exhibitions. Inside, what deserves particular attention is the large room with the fireplace, the furnishings with the pewter collection, the "safe room", the "shelf room", famous for the fourteen wooden shelves carved with figures of animals, monsters and characters dressed in fifteenth-century style, and the frescoes. All these elements place the Avise commission in a well-defined trend of "official" taste of the time.

Positioned north of the capital, along the road that leads to the hilly villages, the massive square tower of Ecours castle is the only remnant of the 13th century construction, together with a short stretch of the ancient surrounding wall. The building, which once belonged to the Lescours (De Curiis) family, among the most eminent of the Valdigne in the Middle Ages, was half enfeoffed to the nobles of Chatelard already in 1430. In 1551, the castle passed into the hands of the Bozel and subsequently, again in the 16th century, it became co-lordship of the Gal and the Malliet. In the following century, the fiefdom was reunited by the Passerins, who were still its owners in 1730.
