Château de Saint-Privat, Medieval castle in Vers-Pont-du-Gard, France.

The castle stands near the Gardon River, featuring extensive gardens divided into three sections with centuries-old trees and traditional French landscaping designs.

The estate incorporates remnants of a 12th-century fortification and was owned by the Faret family from 1451 to 1865, undergoing significant architectural modifications.

The 18th-century chapel contains artworks by Georges Desvallières, commissioned in 1922, depicting interpretations of World War I through religious imagery.

Visitors can explore the castle through guided tours priced at 6 to 10 euros for adults and 3 euros for children under 12 years old.

The Balauzière grotto within the estate contains archaeological evidence of prehistoric human settlements and preserved ancient skeletal remains.
