Perché au sommet d'une petite colline au milieu de la plaine du Comtat Venaissin, il n'a conservé de son rayonnement passé qu'une église encore voûtée, une petite chapelle, deux tours, quelques pans de murs et, au milieu de sa cour, une citerne creusée dans la roche. Aujourd'hui propriété privée, le château de Thouzon est restauré et géré par une association affiliée à l'Union Rempart qui organise chaque été des chantiers de jeunes bénévoles .
