To make a day of it
Château de Pontevès stands in Pontevès (Var), in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Standing on a rocky spur overlooking the plain in the Var region, Pontevès castle survives today as ruins, remnants of a powerful lordship first recorded in the 11th century. The site is reached from the village through an old gateway still standing, and preserves traces of a large residence remodeled in the 17th century, before gradual abandonment during the following century left it in the state seen today.
