Monuments and Castle
La Barben castle
You can trace Provencal history from the 10th to the 21st century in this magnificent mediaeval castle. Beautiful surroundings. The owners are very family-orientated and provide all sorts of activities, there really is something for everyone, including a treasure hunt to get you to really look at the outside walls. A surprise awaits the children at the entrance… Every day from April 5th to November 30th; 3 euros – treasure hunt inside the castle during the visit; 8 euros for adults; 6 euros for 4 to 12 year olds – Every spring, there is a big mediaeval festival with entertainment and traditional games. You can bring a picnic or buy local produce for your lunch…. Idea: the castle is next door to the zoo in La Barben (if you didn’t know, this is the biggest zoo in South East France).
