Château de Gières stands in Gières (Isère), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
On the Mûrier hill above Gières stand the remains of a hilltop stronghold first built in the 12th century and altered over the following centuries. Also known as the Mûrier castle or the castle of the Bocsozel and Alleman d'Uriage families, it ranks among the oldest fortified sites in the Grenoble area. The main draw is the ruin itself, along with the view over the valley from the hill.
