Commanderie de Devesset, Medieval commandry in Devesset, France
The commandry features a semi-detached tower with a conical roof, two square floors, and walls constructed from medium-sized cut stones.
Established in 1164 by the Count of Valentinois, the commandry transferred to the Knights Hospitaller in 1313 following the dissolution of the Knights Templar.
The Knights of Malta governed this commandry for centuries, establishing it as a central religious and military institution in the Upper Vivarais region.
Located in the Ardèche department at 1100 meters elevation, the commandry maintains architectural elements from the 15th century despite modifications.
The structure stands on the watershed between the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, near the source of the Eyrieux River.
