All that remains of the medieval fort is the large moat and two levels of underground galleries.
Whether obliterated or hidden, the remains still need to be deciphered. In Celto-Ligurian times, it was the ideal site for an oppidum, then in the Middle Ages for a castrum, and finally for a stronghold until the 17thcentury (dismantled by Louis XIV), when it became nothing more than a stone quarry after being set on fire by the revolutionaries in 1792. The troubles continued in the 19th century: far from being restored, the château was instead dismantled stone by stone. All that remained of the medieval fort was the large moat and two levels of underground galleries.
