The Bastille is the name of a fortress culminating at 476 m above sea level, located at the south end of the Chartreuse mountain range and overlooking the city of Grenoble, France.
The Bastille, which also gives its name to the hill, is the main tourist site of the Grenoble area with 600 000 visitors per year.
The fortress lies on the final promontory of Mount Rachais, a narrow mountain that is the most southerly of the Chartreuse range.
The plateau of the fortress' main fortifications is situated 264 metres above a singularly flat valley floor which is glacial in origin.
The melting of the Isère glacier approximately 25,000 years ago led to the formation of a vast lake stretching from Voiron to Albertville and which remained for approximately 10,000 years.
The filling-in of this lake by alluvial deposits created the perfectly flat valley floors that are in evidence today.
The location of the fort was chosen because it facilitated the surveillance and control of the city of Grenoble, from the 19th century onward,
as well as the valleys of the Isère and the Drac, all the while being difficult to attack and overthrow because of the cliffs and steep ground by which it is surrounded.
The Bastille is visited by some 600,000 people each year, approximately half of whom take the cable car from the city centre.
The rest of the visitors go by car up the steep and narrow road from La Tronche, or on foot by one of the numerous signposted paths to reach the Bastille.
In 2005 the Bastille underwent substantial works in order to make the entirety of the site accessible to persons of reduced mobility.
It is the setting for numerous exhibitions and social and cultural events, while also being the destination of an annual cycle race (La Prise De La Bastille) and a via ferrata (Les Prises De La Bastille).
There are reminders everywhere on the site of the protagonists of the fortifications of the hill.
The central square of the fort is called Place Tournadre, the square above between the restaurant and the fort is Place Haxo,
the terrace of the restaurant is the Belvédère Vauban (Vauban Viewpoint), and the large meeting and exhibition room of the fort is the Lesdiguières Room.

Le monastère de la Grande Chartreuse (Isère - France)
(F) Le monastère de la Grande Chartreuse est le premier monastère et la maison-mère de l'Ordre des Chartreux. Il est situé au pied du Grand Som, quatrième plus haut sommet du massif de la Chartreuse.
L'implantation des Chartreux dans le massif qui leur a donné son nom fait de ce site le type de l'espace monastique cartusien, bien que lordre se soit accommodé dès le xiiie siècle de sites urbains et de maisons situées en plaine, voire au bord de la mer.
Conformément à la règle cartusienne, le monastère ne se visite pas, mais un musée est installé à la Correrie, en aval du monastère. On peut y voir des reconstitutions de cellules de moines.
(EN) Grande Chartreuse is the head monastery of the Carthusian order. It is located in the Chartreuse Mountains, north of the city of Grenoble, in the commune of Saint-Pierre-de-Chartreuse (Isère), France. Originally, the château belonged to the See of Grenoble. In 1084, Saint Hugh gave it to hermit Saint Bruno and his followers who founded the Carthusian Order.
Today, visitors are not permitted at Grand Chartreuse, and motor vehicles are prohibited on the surrounding roads. However, a museum of the Carthusian order and the lives of its monks and nuns stands about two kilometers away.
The order is supported by the sales of Chartreuse liqueur which has been popular in France and later around the world since the early 1700s.
English poet Matthew Arnold wrote one of his finest poems, Stanzas from the Grande Chartreuse, while briefly staying at the monastery around 1850. The quiet, serenity, and monastic calm became, for him, the susurrations of a dying world which contrasted with what he saw as the violent emerging age of machinery. Grand Chartreuse was also described in the 1850 revision of William Wordsworth's The Prelude, Book VI, lines 416-88 (Wordsworth visited the monastery in 1790), and John Ruskin's Praeterita.
The monastery was closed in 1903 by the French state. The monks found refuge in Italy until 1929, but returned in 1940 when it was reopened.
A documentary film about the monastery entitled Into Great Silence, directed by Philip Gröning, received acclaim on the film festival circuit following its release in 2005.

It was founded by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in 1118, and built in the Romanesque style. It is one of the oldest and most complete Cistercian abbeys in Europe, and became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981. Of the original complex comprising church, dormitory, cloister, chapter house, caldarium, refectory, dovecote and forge, all remain intact except the refectory and are well maintained.

Chartreuse, Isere, includes St. Hugues Church with Artist Arcabas, French Alps
Chartreuse is a small region about 30 minutes outside of Chambery in Isere. There are several quaint, mountain villages which are worth driving through, but what's even more beautiful is the scenery of the mountains, hills, forests and pastures. It may be the most gorgeous scenery I've seen yet and we frequent the area on our motorbike. The main little town is called St. Pierre du Chartreuse - near the town are the museum and the Abby, which was first settled in the 1100's by a Monk who came to the area for isolation and solitude. The Abby is still occupied by monks who have taken an oath of silence. Visitors are not usually allowed. Their income comes from the liquor they make which is also called 'Chartreuse.' It's quite famous in France and has an herbal taste, but frankly, I don't care for it. But what is fun is taking a tour of where they make it and other liquors in Voiron, which is a 45 minute drive away. The tour includes one tasting of their liquors and some of the fruit flavored ones are excellent. For me however the best place to stop in St. Pierre du Chartreuse is the Saint Hugues Church. It is filled with contemporary religious art by Arcabas and is glorious to see. Most French people in Chambery don't even know about the church so this is truly a wonderful secret to discover.
