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!

J'ai bien aimé les différentes animations proposées (trébuchet, forge, taille de pierre, archer, ...), qui complètent bien l'exposition à l'intérieur.
Il faut prévoir (si on veut tout voir) plus de 3 heures de visite.
L'exposition temporaire sur les super héros était plus intéressante que ce à quoi je m'attendais.

Un beau moment de partage avec des passionnés d’histoire qui vous apportent leurs connaissances des techniques de fabrication, et de guerre anciennes.

Lo peor el repechon ya que es de piedra y dificulta un poco el andar recto porque patinan. El resto muy bonito

Une très belle visite, a l'intérieur du château découverte de l' histoire de Foix .
Une technologie à été mis en place très ludique pour visiter et s 'informé sans ce lasser .
A l'extérieur sur les remparts, vous découvrirez les métiers de l'époque comme tailleur de pierre et bien d autres choses encore 2 tours ce font face.
De la haut vue imprenable sur la ville et alentours .
