Château de Mayragues stands in Castelnau-de-Montmiral (Tarn), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Mayragues stands at Castelnau-de-Montmiral, on vineyard land worked since Roman times. First built in the 12th century and later transformed during the Renaissance, the present structure features three corner towers of differing shapes and a timber-framed walkway crowning the roofline. Visitors can see a carved portal topped by an unfinished pediment, along with painted ceilings and a richly decorated stone fireplace inside. The estate, farmed biodynamically, also offers guest rooms with access to the wall-walk.
