# Château de Sommières

Sommières, Gard, Occitanie

Château de Sommières stands in Sommières (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Standing on a rocky spur above the Vidourle river and the Roman Tibère bridge, Sommières castle bears the marks of several centuries of successive fortifications. The Bermond tower, an early 13th-century keep built directly on the rock, remains the best-preserved part of the site, while the Montlaur tower, built later, survives only as foundations. Visitors can also see a castle chapel, a gate tower with machicolations, and two lines of walls that recall the repeated sieges the stronghold endured, particularly during the Wars of Religion.

**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.
