To make a day of it

Château de Bélarga stands in Bélarga (Hérault), in the Occitanie region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The Château de Bélarga overlooks a ford on the Hérault river, in the village that bears its name. The north wing still holds traces of a 14th and 15th century building, while the rest took its present form in the 17th century under the Mirman family, in the rustic style then fashionable in Montpellier. The site is chiefly remembered for a turbulent medieval history, including a notorious trial that reached the Parliament of Paris.
