Château de Belcastel stands in Belcastel (Aveyron), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument. Adult admission costs 10 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Standing on a rocky spur above the Aveyron river, Belcastel castle overlooks the village of the same name, listed among the most beautiful villages in France. Its stern, fortified look reflects its original purpose as a military stronghold along an old salt trade route, rather than a residence of leisure. The visit is fairly short, taking in the defensive architecture and the view over the valley.
