This fortress, which
is one of largest of France, was rebuilt under Saint-Louis after
the annexation in 1229 of Languedoc to the Royal field. It supervised
the Rhone, then border with Provence, and was destroyed on the order
of Richelieu. By the strengthened door, one sees the triangular
tower, at side the vault and the round tower are. At the interior
of the garden the museum Auguste Jacquet is installed.
