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

Of the 108 castles we list in Gard, these 38 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 38 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Renaissance, spread across 37 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château de Beaucaire (Beaucaire Castle) (open to visitors), Château de Lussan (Lussan Castle) (a listed historic monument), Tower of Philip the Fair (978 reviews), Château de Madières (Madières Castle) (you can stay the night) and Castle of Rousson (17th century).

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 1 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 12 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Renaissance, with 38 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
