A castle in eagle's nest at the confluence of the Ariège and the Arget which stands out from the mountainous piedmont. A great moment of history.

Not to be missed! The large, interactive museum of the Counts of Foix offers a total immersion in time and history, combining heritage and new technologies. This castle, at the confluence of the Arget and Ariège rivers, seems to hang in the clouds rather than rest on solid ground. This location has earned it a great deal of jealousy and, above all, formidable sieges. The three towers that stand out with authority against the Fuxen sky belong to different eras. Temporary exhibition to discover this year: Heroes & Heroines!

The picture of "little smart" speaks for itself. It is an impressive and impressive fortress that dominates the city of FOIX, in a beautiful state of conservation. The various rooms are visited and present various exhibitions on the castle, its construction, its occupants and the collections of objects of the Middle Ages. Outside, you're invited to shoot at the crossroads.

A voir si de passage dans la région mais rien de très original comparé à d'autre château.
Les visites sont cependant intéressantes et pédagogiques, et permettent d'en apprendre un peu plus sur le château Comtal.
Il faut monter une longue côte pour y accéder, donc compliqué pour les personnes à mobilité réduite.

Un très beau château à visiter pour replonger dans l'univers médiéval notamment dans la salle d'arme. L'accès est glissant les jours de pluie (dalles au sol sur la montée) alors soyez vigilant.
Par contre si le temps est pluvieux et que les nuages sont bas vous aurez une vue du château un peu ténébreuse qui nous replonge un peu plus dans un univers médiéval appréciable!
