Château de Berthier stands in Pinsaguel (Haute-Garonne), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 14th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
At the confluence of the Garonne and the Ariège, on the edge of Toulouse, the Berthier castle still bears traces of a 13th century medieval stronghold beneath a late 18th century neoclassical makeover. The buildings are arranged around a main courtyard, with a central residence marked by brick pilasters and two lower wings extending into former farm structures. Now owned by the town of Pinsaguel, it serves as a gateway to the adjoining regional nature reserve.
