Roman heritage
The history of Château Montaud begins two thousand years ago with the exploitation by the Romans of silver veins, and the settlement of their families in this beautiful valley at the foot of the Moors. Traces of their presence were thus found through the existence of a hillside water reservoir, a cellar and its press, a mill, a fort and other objects of everyday life.
Over the centuries, a castle appeared, then was destroyed and rebuilt several times, according to the very eventful history of Provence.
The current version of the castle dates back to 1858. It is a mixture of Florentine and Provençal inspiration, but it still houses the cellar and the chapter house which date back several centuries. This is where the Ravel family lives and works, close to this unique Provencal terroir.
