From the once impregnable Castle there are beautiful ruins and a magnificent view of the Alpilles mountain range and the roofs of Le Baux. The cost of visiting is 10 euros. Opening hours from 9-00 to 20-15 (work schedule depends on the season). Details can be found at http://www. chateau-baux-provence. com/fr. An audio guide is issued free of charge (available in Russian), but only on the security of a passport or other identity card.
On the territory of the Castle there is an exhibition of siege weapons (13th century). Some of them are still serviceable, which is what medieval animators demonstrate to a crowd of tourists. Such a reconstructed medieval show : )
Paintings of how this place once looked before destruction are exhibited everywhere. Very convenient for visual perception!
There are also several ruins of towers that you can climb. Near each warning label that the ascent is difficult. I confirm.
In some places, the steps are so trampled by the feet, eager to touch the history, so twisted, polished and unevenly trampled that the ascent resembles gymnastic exercises - jump over here, and then pull yourself up on the handrail. Therefore, advice - comfortable, non-slip and fully fixed shoes are needed here!
And at the top there is a huge plateau made of smooth, almost polished stone and an endless space all around ...They say that in good weather you can even see Marseille from here!
