Château de Sorgues stands in Cornus (Aveyron), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is not open to visitors.
Built in 1086 on the remains of a Roman tollhouse, the Château de Sorgues overlooks a secluded valley in the Aveyron region, near Cornus. Altered in the 15th and 19th centuries, this former military stronghold once guarded the source of the river that bears its name. Now operating as a guest residence, it offers visitors a glimpse of early fortified architecture set within an unspoiled rural landscape.
