Château d'Alphéran, French château in Puyricard, Aix-en-Provence, France.

The château stretches across 30 hectares of land at the foot of the Trévaresse mountain range, featuring gardens and an orangery.

Built in the early 17th century as Domaine de Sainte Croix, the château was acquired by Claude Alphéran de Bussan in 1724 following his services during the plague.

The château maintains its French architectural elements through multiple renovations, including a major reconstruction after the 1909 earthquake.

The property now functions as an event venue, offering spaces for weddings, corporate seminars, and professional photoshoots.

The orangery hosted a notable wedding in 1921 between Simone Charlet and Raymond de Roquefeuil-Montpeyroux, marking a significant social occasion.
