Château de Girard stands in Vézénobres (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The Château de Girard stands in Vézénobres, a hilltop village in the Gard department overlooking the Gardons plain. Built in the 14th century by the family whose name it bears, it was once part of the fortifications protecting the village during the Hundred Years' War. Its defensive walls are long gone, but the building itself remains and now serves public purposes rather than its original military role.

What to know

The building is not a museum: it houses the town hall on its north side and a tourism and fig-growing information point on its south side.
The former ramparts, destroyed in 1628, are no longer visible today.
Visiting the château is part of exploring the hilltop medieval village of Vézénobres, reached on foot via sloping lanes.
No opening hours or admission fees specific to the château are available, check with the local tourist office.
