Ruins of Château de Palluau

Highlight • Castle

Fortified castle built in the 13th century, including a vicus and a parish church, which no longer exists, with a fortified wall flanked by towers and a large main building surrounded by towers, resting on a base with a low covered walkway in the sheath in the embankment of the root ball. On the site of this old fortress, reconstruction of the castle in 1661 for Marshal de Clérambault, then modification in the 18th century by the Comte de Pontchartrain. The castle, burnt down in 1793 during the Revolution, has remained in ruins since that time. The interest of this building lies as much in the medieval remains as in those of the 17th century castle.

Apremont Castle

Highlight • Castle

The first Apremont castle was polygonal.
It was built in the 11th century on the promontory which dominates the Vie river and its valley.
Rebuilt in the 16th century, it is today largely in ruins, but has preserved several imposing buildings.
You can discover the history of this castle from the traces of the old medieval fortress to the Renaissance towers built in the 16th century. There are free tours as well as guided tours.
