# Château de Canet-en-Roussillon

Canet-en-Roussillon, Pyrénées-Orientales, Occitanie

Château de Canet-en-Roussillon stands in Canet-en-Roussillon (Pyrénées-Orientales), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 14th century, 16th century, 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

On a hill near the Roussillon coastline, the ruins of the Canet-en-Roussillon castle recall a stronghold once held by the kings of Majorca and then of Aragon. The 12th-century walls, built of river pebbles and later reinforced with brick, still trace the site's irregular trapezoidal enclosure. Visitors can make out the base of a round tower, a chapel with a Lombard-arcaded apse, and a domed underground ice-house.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
