The waterfront Chateau de la Napoule on the Cote d'Azur in Provence, France, originally was a 14th century castle built by the Villeneuve family, although the site was settled by the Romans probably around the first century. The castle was destroyed and rebuilt eight times over 500 years and even became a glass factory in the 1800s. Then it was left to deteriorate.
In 1918 an American artist and his wife, Henry and Marie Elsie Clews restored the Chateau de la Napoule into the magnificent building one sees today. Sculptures by Henry Clews and the formal gardens designed by Marie Clews make the Chateau a most interesting place to visit. One can even have a cup of tea in the tea room, open from April to the end of September.
In...
... 1951, in memory of her husband Marie Clews created the Arts Foundation. The Chateau de la Napoule is now a non-profit arts centre which is run by descendants of Henry and Marie Elsie Clews. Concerts, plays and other events are held annually at the Chateau as well as temporary art exhibits.
