The Four Castles of Lastours
Exceptional place of the Cathar Area
A unique architectural and archaeological complex :
- Four castles: Cabaret, Régine Tower, Surdespine, Quertinheux.
- A medieval village.
- Natural cavities.
- Remains of a primitive church "la Vielha Gleisa".
- The archaeological exhibition "Lastours, 4000 years of history".
- The Geology, Botany, Zoology exhibition "Lastours, worlds to discover".
The Belvedere, an unrivalled panorama:
2 km from the village, it allows busy visitors and people with reduced mobility to have a view of the castles.
New tour :
An original approach to the site through the development of a newly created route: original views of the castles, landscapes, panoramas, old mines, natural cavities or built structures make this way all the more attractive. An obligatory passage in a small cave allows you to appreciate the freshness place. A rediscovery of the site in perspective !!!
