Château de Rousson stands in Rousson (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Built at the very start of the 17th century by Jacques d'Agulhac de Beaumefort, the Château de Rousson follows a classical plan flanked by four corner towers, barely altered since it was first raised. Mullioned windows mark the main facade, the entrance door bears a curved pediment, and old tiled floors survive inside. From the terrace, views stretch toward the Aigoual and Ventoux mountains.
