Châteauneuf-du-Rhône is a medieval village at the gateway to the Drôme Provençale. Known for its Fête Médiévale des Bateliers and Saint-Nicolas, held every 2 years in early December.
Description
The medieval town is also a must-see, as are its rich biodiversity, the Viarhôna and the lakes area for fishing! All year round, stop off to discover the charming little streets, the shops, the campsite** and enjoy the pleasant setting on the banks of the Rhône.
Châteauneuf-du-Rhône is Montélimar Agglomération's second-largest commune in terms of population. Set against the mountains that form the northern entrance to the Strait of Donzère, Châteauneuf-du-Rône has preserved its medieval heart while modernizing its infrastructure thanks to its dynamic development. Situated at the crossroads of major traffic and development routes, it is marked by the presence of the hydroelectric power station and numerous companies that have set up on its soil, including a business park that continues to grow and create jobs.
