September 30, 2025, Château de Brosse

Once a mighty fortress, now remains perched on a rocky ridge, with a round keep as a silent witness. In 1369, Brosse was set on fire, but generations returned to save the stones and preserve the ruins.

This impressive castle was built in the 11th century and was occupied by Guillaume X, father of Aliénor d'Acquitane. The queen of France from 1137 to 1152 was born in this castle. The castle was dismantled by Richelieu but was renovated in the 19th century.

All that remains of the medieval fortress today is the circular keep and its curtain wall from the 13th century and the towers either side.

Under the cover of the trees, look at this bridge that nature is trying to take back.

Very beautiful ruins of the old Brush castle. The site is private but almost all of the ruins are visible from the outside. The site has been listed since 2003 for their architectural and landscape qualities.
