Ruins of a fourteenth century castle with 5 towers and surrounded by vineyards, hosted a procession on St. George's Day

The view over the ruins of this fortified castle, surrounded by vineyards and lined with plane trees, is splendid. Erected in the 14th century by Raymond Guilhem de Budos, nephew of Pope Clement V, the castle had 5 towers, and a procession was held here on St. George's Day. The dwellings were vast, arranged around the inner courtyard. In medieval times, services and living quarters were distributed by level, but subsequent remodeling has led to a number of redistributions. The Budos ruins are a must-see if you're passing through.

Leider nicht zugänglich und mit hohem Gras zugewuchert. Aber sehr stimmungsvoll mitten in den Weinfeldern!

Dommage le Château est en ruine, les travaux de restauration sont colossaux, et surtout il en entouré de champs agricoles en activité

J'adore cette ruine. Quand je rentre chez mes parents dans les Landes, je fais souvent un détour pour m'y arrêter. Oui il faut parfois passer par un trou pour y entrer, oui ça fait mal au cœur de voir une telle forteresse en ruines mais c'est aussi ça l'histoire, des pierres vestiges d'un autre temps. Je le considère un peu comme mon château, cette grande ruine immuable qui me sourit quand je passe par là !
