CHATEAU DE FONTAGER
|
|
Le Chateau 26600   Serves-sur-Rhône
|
The place of Fontager got its name from the Latin “Fontis Ager”, source of the soil, source that was already known under the roman period and it is still running from a rock in a corner of the park.
The legend attached to the castle says that Pontius Pilate has lived here. According to "Eusebe de Cesaree", a Christian historian from the third century, Pontius Pilate in disgrace was exiled to that region of France in 37 b. c. Appointed Governor of the town of Vienne, it said that he committed suicide by throwing himself from a tower in the Rhône. Some have recognised that tower to be in Vienne, others at the castle of Fontager.
The origins of the Fontager castle are very old; on place you can still find remains as old as the fifth century b. c., and certain remains of pottery are even more than 4000 years old.
