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! Large interactive museum allowing a total immersion in time and history by associating heritage and new technologies. This castle seems to be more attached to the clouds than on solid ground, at the confluence of the Arget and Ariège rivers. This situation was worth to him many jealousies and especially of the redoubtable seats. The three towers which are cut out with authority in the fuxéen sky belong to different times. This castle is a symbol of the ancient power of the Counts of Foix and a monument that defies the centuries.

The picture of "little smart" speaks for itself. It is an impressive and impressive fortress that dominates the city of FOIX, in a beautiful state of conservation. The various rooms are visited and present various exhibitions on the castle, its construction, its occupants and the collections of objects of the Middle Ages. Outside, you're invited to shoot at the crossroads.

Superbe château du Moyen Age facile d'accès avec des belles salles dépaysantes. A visiter à l'intérieur comme depuis l'extérieur.

A voir si de passage dans la région mais rien de très original comparé à d'autre château.
Les visites sont cependant intéressantes et pédagogiques, et permettent d'en apprendre un peu plus sur le château Comtal.
Il faut monter une longue côte pour y accéder, donc compliqué pour les personnes à mobilité réduite.

Un très beau château à visiter pour replonger dans l'univers médiéval notamment dans la salle d'arme. L'accès est glissant les jours de pluie (dalles au sol sur la montée) alors soyez vigilant.
Par contre si le temps est pluvieux et que les nuages sont bas vous aurez une vue du château un peu ténébreuse qui nous replonge un peu plus dans un univers médiéval appréciable!
