The Château de Labruguière stands on a rocky outcrop above the small town in the Tarn, on the site of a 10th-century fortified castle. The long rectangular main building, reworked at the end of the 16th century, has mullioned windows evenly set across two storeys. Its most notable feature is a round corner tower on corbels, resting on a moulded base carved with sculpted brackets, alongside a square tower built into the gable wall.
