Le Château d'Aubenas – Centre d’Art Contemporain et du Patrimoine d’Aubenas

Aubenas Castle recently completed an ambitious rehabilitation project and opened its doors to the public as a Contemporary Art and Heritage Center in the summer of 2024. After seven years of work, the magnificently restored heritage site is giving new life to this gem of medieval architecture. Now a true meeting place for heritage and contemporary creation, the Château offers a varied program including exhibitions, tours, and cultural events, aiming to make this site a must-see in the Ardèche region.

Each year, several temporary exhibitions, both personal and collective, will highlight artists of all origins and generations. At the same time, a rich cultural dynamic will punctuate the life of the Château: artistic residencies, conferences, concerts and performances.
A unique place where heritage and art meet!
