Château de Labarre stands in Foix (Ariège), in the Occitanie region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
On a rocky spur above the right bank of the Alses, overlooking the Labarre district of Foix, stand the remains of a 12th century fortress. The site offers a clear view of the château de Foix and bears witness to a turbulent past linked to the Albigensian Crusade. No standing building remains as such, but the ruins and the panorama make the climb worthwhile.
