Château de Beaumont le Vieux, Medieval castle ruins in Beaumont-du-Ventoux, France.
The stone tower remains stand on elevated ground, with walls measuring between 2.5 and 3.3 meters in thickness at different points.
The castle construction dates back to the late 10th century during the Counts of Toulouse reign, followed by destruction in the 16th-century Religious Wars.
The castle site represents medieval military architecture in Provence, reflecting the defensive priorities of the period through its structural design.
Located at coordinates 44.1804 latitude and 5.18042 longitude, the site requires careful navigation as it consists mainly of remaining foundation stones.
The fortress changed hands multiple times between French and English forces during the Hundred Years War before its partial demolition under Louis XI.
