6 châteaux listed · verified entries first, then the most visited; alphabetical index at the bottom of the page

Of the 24 castles we list in Hautes-Alpes, these 6 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 6 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Middle Ages, spread across 5 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château de Tallard (Tallard Castle) (open to visitors), Château de Picomtal (Picomtal Castle) (wheelchair accessible), Domaine de Charance (with a restaurant) and Château de Montmaur (Montmaur Castle) (a listed historic monument).

4 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 4 and the prices of 3 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 3 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Middle Ages, with 6 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
