Bouzols is the first castle of the Loire Valley located on a rocky promontory.

Bouzols is the first castle of the Loire Valley located on a rocky promontory. The primitive castle of the 11th century is trapezoidal in shape, built of basalt blocks assembled with fairly thick joints. The walls are 3 meters thick. In 1808, it was acquired in a state of ruin by the Beaud de Brive family. Restored at the end of the 19th century by Albert de Brive in the respect of its original forms and materials, Bouzols, privately owned, appears today as one of the survivors of a military architecture of the first rank. Bring good shoes.

Nous avons remarqué ce superbe château au loin, nous nous y sommes arrêtés.
Le propriétaire gentillement nous a proposer la visite aux heures prévues.
Simon de faire le tour du château sur un chemin pour pouvoir ce rendre compte de l'extérieur.
Petite promenade de 10 mn.
Mais on y retournera pour la visite intérieur.
Je conseil ++

Château atypique qui offre une vue panoramique exceptionnelle.
Peu connu, cela permet des visites en petit comité.
Guide très agréable.

Château médiéval dont la défense atypique est à priori unique en France. A visiter absolument. Guide intéressante et passionnée.

Petit tour du château une semaine avant l'ouverture. Il n'y avait donc personne. La cour était ouverte et nous avons pu faire le tour du château par l'extérieur. Un bémol, pas sûr d'avoir trouvé le parking.
