Castle with an impressive medieval hall with weapons and armor

Before reaching the foot of its walls and its first terrace, we see it massive and compact, gathered around its square keep. Its fortifications and their corner towers enclose a central courtyard, which is entered by a narrow drawbridge, restored to a state of grace. The visits (about 1 hour) lead to the different buildings restored under the impulse of the architect Fernand Pouillon who presided over the reconstruction of the old port in Marseille. Other curiosities: the medieval room with its weapons and armours, impressive.

Avant de monter au château (à pied bien sûr !), il faut le regarder d'en bas, depuis l'entrée de l'église située sur la rive gauche de l'Aveyron : quelle belle vue de l'édifice surmontant le magnifique village (à mon avis le plus beau de l'Aveyron) ! Le château en lui-même, d'une taille pourtant assez modeste présente plusieurs intérêts : le site ; la restauration que Fernand Pouillon a voulu partielle ; l'agencement et le contenu historique des différentes salles (notamment les armures) ; la vue magnifique sur le village et la vallée ; et enfin les expositions d'oeuvres picturales, puisque le château constitue l'un des lieux d'exposition des actuels propriétaires, qui sont galéristes à New-York.
