To make a day of it

Château de Crochans stands in Piolenc (Vaucluse), in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Piolenc, in the Vaucluse, the château de Crochans replaces a medieval fortified house, remnants of which survive in the adjoining former farm. Built between 1741 and 1743 to plans by architect Jean-Pierre Franque, it stands within a landscaped park laid out in the late 19th century. The estate now belongs to the Gruss family, who run circus training courses in the park.
