In the commune of Gerbaix, in Savoy, the ruins of a 13th-century hilltop castle stand at 680 metres above sea level, in the hamlet of Les Brets. The site retains the layout of several concentric enclosures, the outermost reinforced with semicircular towers, surrounding a rectangular dwelling flanked by two square towers. Visitors come for the defensive architecture of what was once the seat of a local lordship held by several noble families of Savoy.
