点评:Crussol castle is first mentioned in the tenth century but (core of) the present edifice was erected in the twelfth century by Gerold Bastet de Crussol.
During its time of glory between the twelfth and the fourteenth century the fortified town of Crussol houses about 600 people, with 300 more farmers outside.
Undefeated until the age of cannon Crussol is taken five timesbetween 1573 and 1578, during the wars of religion. The castle is set ablaze and the keep is destroyed. The town will be abandoned afterward.
There is a small museum with an interesting scale model at the entrance to the site but there are no information panels inside the fortified town. There is also no guidebook. I therefore warmly encourage visitors who want to know more about the history and layout of Crussol to enlist for an outstanding 90 minute guided tour which takes you from the town gate all the way up to the ruins of the castle (part of which tumbled down the rock in 1855 as a result of stone quarrying in the valley below).
Our guide – a lovely lady who had mastered in environmental law – proved very friendly, knowledgeable and open to questions. She also engaged the children in the audience in a fun way.
She pointed out the architectural details of various buildings along the way, explained the history of the town and the layout of the castle.
Crussol is very peaceful and offers beautiful vistas of the surrounding countryside and the river Rhone. Bring your camera because the site is very atmospheric.
The restaurant near the parking lot offers delicous food for an honest price and has very pleasant terrace.

在十二世纪至十四世纪的辉煌时期,克鲁索尔这座设防城镇曾居住着约600人,城外还有300多名农民。
克鲁索尔在火炮时代之前从未被攻占,在1573年至1578年的宗教战争中,它曾五次被攻陷。城堡被付之一炬,主楼也被摧毁。之后,这座城镇被废弃。
遗址入口处有一个小型博物馆,里面有一个有趣的比例模型,但城镇内部没有信息面板,也没有旅游指南。因此,我诚挚地建议想要深入了解克鲁索尔历史和布局的游客,报名参加我们精彩的90分钟导览游。我们将带您从城门一路前往城堡遗址(部分遗址于1855年因山谷采石而从岩石上崩塌)。
我们的导游是一位拥有环境法硕士学位的友善女士,她非常友善、知识渊博,并且乐于解答您的疑问。她还以有趣的方式与观众中的孩子们互动。
她会为您指出沿途各个建筑的建筑细节,并讲解小镇的历史和城堡的布局。
克鲁索尔非常宁静,可以欣赏到周围乡村和罗纳河的美丽景色。带上您的相机,因为这里氛围浓厚。
停车场附近的餐厅提供价格实惠的美味佳肴,并设有一个非常宜人的露台。
