BOUSQUET'S CASTLE
Castle, stronghold of the lords of Montpeyroux, one of the most powerful of Rouergue, educational and playful visit with history and legends
Bousquet is a castle of another time, that struggles and wars have forced men and landscapes to dominate. In the th or th centuries, it was the stronghold of the Lords of Montpeyroux. Today, when the aisle leads to the building, we quickly imagine its history. The heavy, massive architecture recalls that Le Bousquet was probably one of the most beautiful, but also one of the most powerful fortresses of the Rouergue. Almost unscathed, the castle proudly displays its defensive assets: six créneaux and machicolated towers and a tiered round road on two levels; thick walls and few rare openings… The visit thus combines history and legends, like that of this discovered couple wall in its habits clothes… A discovery that is both educational and playful… For those who do not fear ghosts.
