Grimaud Castle is a medieval fortress dating from at least the 11th century located in the town of Grimaud, in the French department of Var. Nowadays in the state of ruins, this monument is the subject of a classification as historical monuments by decree of December 27, 19961.\n\nPresentation\nIn the Middle Ages, the castle was the main center of the seigniory of Freinet, occupying a territory corresponding to the current cantons of Grimaud and Saint-Tropez. As early as the 11th century, there is mention of a castrum in Grimaud, dominating the plain from the top of a rocky peak, naturally protected to the north by the steep slopes of the Vallon de la Garde. Until the 13th century, the fortifications were modest. The castle is inhabited by the family of the Viscounts of Marseille. In the 14th century, the village rampart joined the seigniorial fortifications. In the 15th century, a first quadrangular building, built to the south of the keep, enlarged the whole. The blind room at the base of the dungeon is transformed into a cistern. In the middle of the 17th century, the powerful Castellane family enlarged the buildings by adding the two round towers and developing the east wing on three levels. Jean-Baptiste de Castellane is the last occupant of the premises. During the French Revolution, the castle was abandoned and the stones sold at auction.\n\nThe whole of the enclosure and the fortifications are classified as Historic Monuments in 1996 while the basement is an archaeological site. An open-air theater has been set up, allowing the municipality to organize summer events.
