The Château de Vizille is a castle in the French town of Vizille near Grenoble. It is one of the most prestigious and important castles of the Dauphiné Region. The Dauphiné has traditionally been the homeland of the inheritor of the French throne since the 14th century. The former castle was held during the French Wars of Religion by the Catholics. With the peace settlement in 1593, the property was bought by the leader of the Protestant Army, François de Bonne, Duc de Lesdiguières. Today the Château de Vizille houses the Musée de la Révolution française de Vizille. The park was classified as a historic monument on 23 August 1991.
