Description

La Casamaures: a historical monument of golden grey and ultramarine
In the 19th century, a fort of dreams was built, between the Route imperiale and the River Isère. Its roots were plunged into the foothills of Saint-Martin-le-Vinoux. And this palatial, four-storey lookout, with its exotic gardens, grew to be a focal point nestling in the mountainous massifs twixt the massifs of Chartreuse and Vercors.
This unusual artistic adventure began in 1855 when a couple from Grenoble bought the piece of land known as “La Guinguette”.

La Casamaures, le premier monument en « OR GRIS », un orient alpin.
Aux fortifications de Grenoble, Joseph Jullien dit Cochard, achète en 1855 un terrain longeant la rivière Isère. Un petit palais néo-mauresque fut édifié sur 4 niveaux sur les contreforts de la Bastille par un couple de grenoblois.
Cette ruine fut rachetée en 1981.
Le ministère de la culture l’a classée Monument historique en 1986 pour son style orientaliste et l’innovation du ciment moulé pour ses façades de colonnade et moulures d’arabesques rehaussées de bleu d’outremer.
