Fort Du Saint Eynard
+ My Favorites
Fort Du Saint Eynard was constructed in the late 19th century, at a site where it was believed that attackers could be prevented from crossing the Chartreuse mountains. The fort was built with fine-quality limestone, and the architecture is impressive. It is perched on top of the cliffs, and the lookout provides an excellent view of Grenoble and the Alps. Guided tours are available.

Chateau De Septeme
+ My Favorites
Chateau De Septeme dates back to at least 1066. It had a variety of owners over time, and in 1355 it was returned to the province of Dauphine by the treaty of Paris. This put an end to conflicts between Dauphine and Savoy, whose counts owned the land prior. The Chateau is well preserved, and stands as it did following recontruction in the 15th century. It is surrounded by a coutryard that is adorned with Renaissance arcades and galleries. Guided tours are available.

Fort Du Murier
+ My Favorites
Fort Du Murier was built to fortify French borders after the country was defeated in the Battle of Sedan in 1871. The fort has been impeccably preserved, and is thus an excellent example of the fortifications of the period. Artisans workshops and various other special events are held here throughout the year.
