Description
Built to assert the hegemony of the Capetian monarchy over its Avignon neighbours, Fort Saint-André, wonderfully preserved, is a building that especially marks the sophistication of 14th Century military architecture.Visiting the monument enables to discover all the facets of Mont Andaon (hill on which stands the fort): the wonderful viewpoints over the Rhône valley, the Papal City of Avignon and the Val de Bénédiction Charterhouse; Saint-Bénézet Chapel; the Mask Tower rooms and the Twin Towers; the curtain wall or the recently renovated sentry path.
