View of Cannes from the Château de la Castre
Highlight • Viewpoint
It was built from the 11th century for the monks of Lérins, who lived mainly in their abbey on the island of Saint-Honorat since the 5th century.
It is a male monastery built on a square plan, like that of a castle with a keep.
In the center of the central courtyard stands the 11th-century square watchtower, 21 m high.
If you still have strength after climbing Le Suquet, climb the 109 steps and enjoy an exceptional panorama of the city and the bay of Cannes.
The city of Cannes bought the castle in 1919 to set up its museum there.
