Château d'Alco stands in Montpellier (Hérault), in the Occitanie region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The Château d'Alco is a small countryside folly built around 1740 near Montpellier for the tax farmer Antoine-Samuel Bonnier, from whom it takes its name. Standing on a hill northwest of the city, the building is notably restrained compared with other follies in the region: a modest main block, fronted by a wide flight of steps and marked by a curved pediment. The terraced gardens, linked by a double staircase and adorned with basins, remain open to the public today, even though the vineyards that once surrounded them have given way to urban development.
