Château de Fallavier stands in Saint-Quentin-Fallavier (Isère), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. Admission is free. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
On the Relong hill, beside a lake, stand the ruins of a 13th century fortress that was once the seat of the Fallavier lordship. Its round keep, still 25 metres high, dominates the surrounding countryside and can be climbed via a narrow stairway leading to a viewpoint. Around it, the ruined buildings, traces of a chapel and two successive enclosure walls reveal what was once a substantial stronghold. The site is also known to fans of the television series Kaamelott, which was filmed here.

What to know
- Reaching the top of the keep requires climbing a narrow stairway cut into the thickness of the wall.
- The site, restored by volunteers, consists of open-air ruins that can be explored freely.
- The ground is uneven and the site sits on a hill, so a reasonable level of fitness is needed.
- No verified information is available regarding exact opening hours or visit duration.
