Château de Chassagnes, Medieval castle in Les Vans, France
The Château de Chassagnes features pepper pot turrets with glazed tile roofs, demonstrating the architectural style of minor nobility in Vivarais region.
The castle underwent major renovations in the mid-16th century when the Montjeu lords replaced the original Prolhans family dungeon with new structures.
The castle received monument historique status in 2007, protecting its facades, roofing, outbuildings, and hydraulic system for future generations.
Visitors can find the castle near the Chassezac river in southwestern Ardèche, adjacent to the Païolive woods and Saint-Eugene hermitage.
The 19th-century interior partitioning and window modifications coexist with remnants of a 1938 garden terrace and ancient water system.
