Château de la Croix des Gardes

Château de la Croix des Gardes, the largest estate on the French Riviera and a witness to the Belle Époque era, sits majestically just minutes from Cannes’ Croisette.

Commissioned in 1911 by Swiss industrialist Paul Girod and completed in 1919, this Florentine-style mansion stands as one of the few original large-scale private Châteaux on the Côte d’Azur. From 2019 to 2022, it underwent a meticulous renovation to the highest standards, ensuring the preservation of the property’s heritage

Perched on a hilltop amidst lush woodlands and gardens, it offers captivating views of the iconic turquoise waters, the bustling Port of Cannes, and the serene Lérins Islands.

Perched high above Cannes, the Château offers a 360° panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea, creating an idyllic backdrop. The estate boasts enchanting Italian-style gardens, vineyards, and greenhouses, adding natural charm to your gatherings. Immerse yourself in the immense infinity pool, renowned as a stunning backdrop for exceptional shows, including glamorous catwalk events that have graced its azure waters.
