The castle, already mentioned in the 11th century, was the seat of the Lord of Freinet, who was a vassal of the Count of Provence. In the Middle Ages and early modern times, the castle was lent to various noble families, who modified and expanded it. Defeated in the Huguenot Wars, it was destroyed in the 17th and 18th centuries. Century transformed into a castle-like complex. After being confiscated during the French Revolution and then used as a quarry, the castle gradually fell into ruin. Today its remains have been secured and are open to visitors free of charge all year round.

Saint-Michel Church
Highlight • Religious Site
A special feature of the church is the entrance. From the sun-drenched church square, you descend a staircase into the dark medieval atmosphere of the church. The little light is generated by few windows and indirect lighting. In earlier times it must have been a lot darker.

Landing of the 3rd US Infantry Division
Cogolin was liberated on August 15, 1944 at the time of the landing in Provence by the 3rd American infantry division coming by road from Cavalaire.
But the most memorable event is undoubtedly the landing of the prestigious 3rd Algerian infantry division (3rd DIA) of General de Monsabert on the beach of La Foux on August 16, 1944, which marks the return of the French army from Africa in the metropolis. De Monsabert (3rd DIA) and De Lattre (Army B) set up their headquarters in Cogolin.
