In the aftermath of the storming of the Bastille, new prisons sprang up... the one in Montélimar
was set up in its castle, a palace bearing witness to past splendour and grandeur. The
castle then took on a new function and was transformed into a place of imprisonment.
Today, this part of history is still shrouded in ignorance and
mystery, fuelling fear and denial, but also curiosity and fascination.

So for the upcoming holidays, the prison is coming out of the shadows and opening its doors to visitors!

Delve into this troubled episode in the castle's history, with many surprises in store for you
during the holidays. Games... exhibitions... A unique immersion experience that is just waiting for you.

Detailed programme to follow.
