Château de Troupiac stands in Viviers-lès-Montagnes (Tarn), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Built around 1840 by architect Jean-Pierre Laffon for Armand de Vergeron, sub-prefect of Castres, the Château de Troupiac stands on a hilltop overlooking the Montagne Noire, in Viviers-lès-Montagnes in the Tarn department. The neoclassical building plays on the slope of the land with two differently treated façades, marked by seven bays of windows and dormers grouped in threes beneath the cornice. The site has been occupied since Gallo-Roman times, as shown by underground remains, though no medieval fortress ever stood here before it.
