THE CASTLE OF ROURE
The castle of laughter located at Labastide-de-Virac, housing documents, books and royal orders.
A stronghold on the old road to the Pont d'Arc, the Roure castle-museum keeps the memory of the Wars of Religion and the Camisards revolt. This 15th century building houses documents, books and royal orders, weapons and old tools. You will discover the room where the Duke of Rohan would have slept, in 1629, after having fought in Salavas. A museum presents the stages of silk work, from the thread to the fabric in the heart of a local industry which employed the Huguenots who were expelled from public jobs.

Nos filles de 5 et 9 ans ont beaucoup apprécié les nombreuses animations : tirs de trébuchet, découverte du métier de forgeron, chasse aux oeufs... Le guide qui effectuait les démonstrations etait formidable. La visite du château était très intéressante. On recommande !
