Château d'Uzès, Medieval castle in Uzès, France

The Château d'Uzès stands with its 42-meter keep, corner towers, ramparts, and Renaissance façade dominating the highest point of the town.

Originally established as a Roman castrum, the site evolved into a fortified castle in the 11th century under Lord Elzéart d'Uzès.

The castle represents the first duchy of France, with the Crussol family maintaining ownership through seventeen generations until the present day.

Visitors can explore the castle's towers, Gothic chapel, and period-furnished rooms through guided tours available throughout the year.

The Tour Bermonde, built in the 12th century by Bermond I of Uzès, remains among the largest medieval keeps in France.
