THE CASTELA UNDERGROUND
Go there and contact
The Souterrain du Castela, a site comprising four rooms excavated with iron picks in Saint-Sulpice.
Particularly well preserved, the Castela underground is 142 metres long. It is the only site of its kind open to visitors in the Tarn. Its architecture consists of four rooms dug out with iron picks, which were used as storerooms. The guide will reveal all the secrets of the site, including the hidden ear canal that was once used to say the password, as well as other special features such as the grain silos and water basins. For the record, it was here that "the forger of Saint-Sulpice" took refuge in 1418.

Nous n'avons pas fait qu'une simple visite d'un lieu sympa, mais nous avons remonté le temps grâce à notre guide.
Une mention spécial à cette personne qui connaît parfaitement l'histoire de cette ville, et qui a su au fur et à mesure de la visite transmettre de façon simple et ludique l'histoire des lieux et de ces environs aux petits et aux grands.
Dommage qu'il manque quelques renseignements vu le manque d'études sur les murs et le manque d'informations globales.
A voir quand même.
Pour moi, c'était une première.
