Château de Tholet stands in Gabriac (Aveyron), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 16th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

At Gabriac, on the Comtal causse in Aveyron, the château de Tholet stands around a 24-metre 14th century keep next to a Renaissance manor altered in the 18th century. First recorded in 1075 and long held by the Solages family, the site retains a nearly complete surrounding wall, a hexagonal stair tower and a vaulted seigneurial hall. It is one of the few surviving examples of regular medieval fortification in this part of the Rouergue.

Guided visits take place in July and August.
Reaching the upper levels of the keep involves a narrow spiral staircase, so reasonable mobility is needed.
