Château de la Mogère, 18th-century castle in Montpellier, France

The castle displays a Renaissance-style facade with a prominent pediment, standing against a background of tall pine trees near Montpellier's outskirts.

Fulcran Limouzin, Secretary of State to the King, purchased the grounds in 1706, and architect Jean Giral designed the current structure in 1715.

The interior rooms contain a collection of paintings by Jean Jouvenet, Hyacinthe Rigaud, and Jacques-Louis David, alongside Louis XV and Empire furniture.

Visitors can access the gardens for free during weekend afternoons in low season and daily from June through September, with guided tours available by reservation.

The garden features an Italian-inspired water buffet decorated with polychrome shell bouquets and mosaics in orange and red tones.
