Castles to visit Midi-Toulousain

It is at the time of the foundation of the city around 1074 that a fortification seems to have been built which was replaced by the castle, a more important building ensuring a better protection of the 3 000 inhabitants. The date of construction is between 1268 and 1285. The creation of La Cuisine, a design centre, has made it possible to enhance its value. Today's castle is the result of many transformations, destructions and metamorphoses that have followed the thread of history

Patrick de Lary de Latour is mayor of the commune he has been named after since 2001. But he is also squire de Recycle-Latour! He has completely renovated his castle (with his wife!), who has been in his family for over six centuries. On 1500 m ² of surface, many things to see: collection of tools, kitchen, cellar, house, chapel dedicated to Notre-Dame-des-Anges with 1250 th century stone altarpiece listed in historic monuments, 1830 primitive room, Ajouts-le-Duc additions ()… Nothing alone! Hat for this maintenance and the preservation of a family heritage. Conclude with a sentence that the Lord of the places made in a room: «Open your eyes, man always pressed, to build the future, contemplate the past».
