Concours photo

Grignan prend la pose

Entre la fin du 19e et le début du 20e siècle, à l'époque romantique, il était à la mode de venir se faire photographier dans les extérieurs du château, alors en ruines. De nombreuses photos, notamment de familles, ont été prises à cette époque. Ici par exemple, la famille Davin.
