Château du Suquet stands in Cannes (Alpes-Maritimes), in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 11th century, 12th century, 18th century). No visits are on record for this building.
On the hill overlooking Cannes' old town stands a medieval group made up of an 11th-century watchtower, the Sainte-Anne chapel and the Notre-Dame-de-l'Espérance church. The Suquet tower, a remnant of the fortified castrum built by the monks of Lérins, gives a view over the bay and the nearby islands from its top. This is the oldest district of the city, which lent the site its name.
