Domaine de la Tour stands in Saint-Chaptes (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, fourth quarter of the 18th century, third quarter of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The domaine de la Tour, in Saint-Chaptes in the Gard department, retains traces of a Templar commandery founded in 1212 on the banks of the Gardon river. The medieval 13th century keep stands alongside a new château built in 1796, later extended in the 19th century by architect Revoil, who added a chapel inside the tower. The park, lined with a long avenue of centuries old plane trees, completes this listed historic ensemble.
