# Château de Laroque

Laroquebrou, Cantal, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château de Laroque stands in Laroquebrou (Cantal), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 16th century). Adult admission costs 1 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Perched on a rocky spur above a bridge over the Cère river, Laroquebrou castle preserves the outline of a 13th-century medieval stronghold built to watch over the road toward Quercy and the Limousin. The site lost much of its original structure over time, including a square tower pulled down in 1653, but the surviving walls and remains still speak to its defensive purpose. The place also carries a religious history, since a chapel dedicated to the Virgin once stood inside that vanished tower.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
