Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Standing in the Gers region, the Château de Flamarens combines building phases spread over several centuries, from the late 13th century through to completion in 1470 and further additions the following century. A round tower with machicolations, a crenellated wall walk and a spiral staircase serving the upper floors reflect a style of military architecture typical of Gascony, shaped by influences from the neighbouring Quercy and Périgord regions. Damaged by fire, the building still bears the marks of these successive construction periods in both its structure and its interior decoration.
