THE CASTLE
Go there and contact
This fortress, known as the "Witches' Fortress", is the oldest of its kind, dating back to the Middle Ages
Château des Sorcières" (Witches' Castle) since a tragedy in the 17th century. But the fortress is much older, dating back to the Middle Ages, when the village was built around it and became the administrative center of Labourd. Its Lords were bailiffs of the province from the 15th century until the fateful century, when a councillor at the Bordeaux Parliament ordered numerous executions in the castle, the victim of a terrible witchcraft scandal. But time has not taken its toll on the towers, which still stand unperturbed and timeless today.
