En un regard
Le château en bref
Le Vialle is the historic heart of the village of Grillon (Vaucluse, Papal Enclave). The site is first attested in 1086, when it was held by the counts of Grilhon. Fortifications were built there between 1342 and 1372, and four turrets were added to the ramparts in 1621, of which only one survives. Remains of Pons de Grilhon's castle include the beginning of the vault of the armoury and a double-arched gateway. The Porte Neuve dates from 1758. The former church of Sainte-Agathe (12th century) was demolished in 1864. From 1976, the architect Georges-Henri Pingusson carried out a rehabilitation of the historic housing stock.
