Château de Fozières stands in Fozières (Hérault), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, first quarter of the 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The Château de Fozières, in the Hérault department, retains the three towers and vaulted rooms of a lordly residence whose origins date back to the 12th century, with later additions from the 17th century. The site is referenced in documents as early as 987, and local tradition holds that the square tower has Roman origins. Visitors can make out a central keep, a tower projecting onto the courtyard, and a former dovecote tower to the north, all linked together over time.
