Medieval castle of the XIIth century dominating a valley, the interior traces its rich history, military garrison and prison in the XIXth century

This 12th-century medieval castle, modified in the 14th and 15th centuries, features a drawbridge, an underground prison and a well. The castle's history is recounted in the surrounding walls, as well as the ups and downs of various conflicts: English domination, reconquest by Gaston de Foix, during which the castle was ransacked and burned, and the Wars of Religion. Dismantled in 1642, it was partially rebuilt in 1648, then in the 19th century served as a military garrison and prison. Beautiful views over the valley. The tour includes audio tracks accessible via QR code. Wooden games for children.

Bonitas vistas y poco más. Si no hablas francés o vasco, no te molestes en entrar y si hablas alguno de estos dos idiomas podrás disfrutar en todo su esplendor de lo que parece una casa de pueblo abandonada y adornada con fotos sacadas de Internet.

There’s no better pub in Mimizan, for ambiance, for rugby and those easy days and nights relaxing near the ocean.

The boss is great to chat to, and the staff always good.

See you soon.
