Château de Montaren stands in Montaren-et-Saint-Médiers (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Montaren-et-Saint-Médiers, in the Gard department, this castle presents an L-shaped main building topped with a crenellated parapet on projecting machicolations, flanked by turrets at each corner. The structures standing today date from the 16th century, on a site occupied since the Middle Ages by the Montaren family, then vassals of the bishop of Uzès. Notable features include the entrance door with diamond-pointed rustication crowned by a broken pediment, and a corbelled turret set into the inner angle of the building. A balustraded terrace runs along the west side of the castle.
