* Chateau de Cassis looks like an ancient monument and it is an ancient monument . However now it is now a luxury hotel and it must be a wonderful place to stay. It overlooks the pretty harbour of Cassis and the Mediterranean sea.
Before becoming a hotel the Chateau did have a rich history that began in the Fifth Century, during Roman times, where an early simple stone and wood watch tower was erected over the ancient city of "Carsicis Portus". During the VIII century, the first fortified walls rise around the tower, the remains of which are today's "Saracen" tower
During the thirteenth Century the existing castle walls take shape during the "Castum Carcisis" occupancy by the powerful Baux family in 1223. During the Hundred Years War, François des Baux builds a set of bulwarks around the four square 8-metre high towers to strengthen his maritime defenses. This is followed, between 1372 and 1380, with the addition of a well, a baker's oven and a church referred to as Saint-Michel
On February 10, 1794, the young General Bonaparte makes an historic stop at the castle to inspect the artillery.The artillery is later destroyed during an assault of English soldiers on April 17, 1813. From this time forward the castle's defensive role is reduced. The property is officially ceded by land administrators to a tobacco grower from Saint-Cyr in the Var region, who purchases the castle in 1896. Since this initial purchase, the Château de Cassis has remained a private property.
