Château de Fargues stands in Le Pontet (Vaucluse), in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The château de Fargues stands at Le Pontet, on the edge of Avignon, on land connected since the early 14th century to the circle of Pope Clement V. Built or completed at the end of that century by the Ricci family, it endured sieges, inheritances and a 16th-century fire before passing through several Provençal families, including the Cambis. The main building and several elements of the courtyard, gateway and entrance pavilions among them, reflect these successive building phases.
