Barjac is a commune in the Gard department, in the south of France.

The Cèze valley is to the south, and the Ardèche river 10 km to the north.

Barjac is a Renaissance town. The old town center still has narrow streets, squares and houses from that time. The castle of the counts of Roure with its stone courtyard, formerly called "Citadel", was rebuilt several times from the 12th century.

This imposing building now houses a library in the former stables and a cinema in the former kitchens. The castle hosts the "Chansons de Paroles" festival which takes place every year at the end of July.

The German contemporary artist Anselm Kiefer has installed his studio, called the Ribaute, in Barjac since 1993, in a former industrial wasteland of 35 hectares.
