# Château de Lordat

Lordat, Ariège, Occitanie

Château de Lordat stands in Lordat (Ariège), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 11th century, 15th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Set on a limestone outcrop at 965 metres above sea level, Lordat castle overlooks the upper Ariège valley through its imposing ruins. First recorded in 970, it was once one of the largest feudal fortresses of the county of Foix, sheltering Cathars in the 13th century before being partly dismantled on Henri IV's orders. The remains of three concentric walls, a keep and residential buildings still convey the scale of this medieval stronghold.

**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.
