Château de Montivert, Medieval castle in Saint-André-en-Vivarais, France.
The castle features a rectangular main building with pepper pot towers, decorated facades, and barrel-vaulted cellars made of brick at an elevation of 1070 meters.
Built in the 13th century as a fortified house, the castle underwent major renovations in 1857 under the direction of architect Pierre Martin for the Lacroix-Laval family.
The second floor houses a chapel with ribbed vaults and 19th-century decorations, including period paintings and stained glass windows.
The castle grounds remain open to visitors from April 15 to November 1, with guided tours available year-round by appointment to explore the furnished interiors.
The castle hosts France's oldest active summer camp, established over 115 years ago by a priest from Annonay with support from Countess Lacroix-Laval.
