Castle of King René
As a starting point for their campaigns in the Mediterranean, the Dukes of Anjou Louis II and Louis III built fortress-like chateau from 1400 to 1435. The interior was expanded by the artistically talented King René I. After his death in 1481, the castle was used by the French royal troops as a garrison and later (until 1926) as a prison. As the site of prisoner massacres at the time of the French Revolution, the castle earned an inglorious place in history. The access via the castle moat, the inner courtyard, the main courtyard around the royal apartments and various ballrooms are worth seeing. From the roof terrace there is a beautiful view over the old town of Tarascon and to Beaucaire.
