General presentation
Dominating the medieval village of Roquebrune, cradle of the town, the keep rises as a protector and stands out as an identity signature. Built in the 10th century by the Counts of Ventimiglia, its history is inseparable from that of the village which was initially integrated into the fortress. Under the domination of the Grimaldi for 5 centuries, it offers a breathtaking view of the Principality of Monaco and breathtaking panoramas over the roofs of the village, Cap Martin and the Mediterranean sea.
