The ruins of Castelnau-de-Lévis castle, a magical, historic site with a superb watchtower.

The castle of Castelnau-de-Lévis is a place full of magic and history. Built in 1235 by Sicard Alaman, a powerful vassal of the Count of Toulouse Raymond VII, this stronghold was an important possession of the Toulousans in the face of royalty. Built on a rocky outcrop called "puy de Bonnafous", the castle was called Castelnau-de-Bonnafous for a long time, before taking the name of the owners Lévis. Today, a few ruins remain, notably its superb watchtower.

La tour est visible depuis bien loin dans la vallée, elle fait 30 m de haut. C'est dommage qu'on ne puisse pas y monter, elle a l'air aménagée. D'autres restes du château subsistent, comme les remparts et quelques bâtiments. Des explications sur des panneaux complémentent bien la visite. A deux pas de l'autoroute Albi-Toulouse, ce château et son village méritent bien un détour.

Tour d'un château du Moyen Age qui ne peut être visité seulement le weekend du patrimoine. Belle vue sur le village de Castelnau de Lévis ainsi que sur la plaine albigeoise.
