Château des comtes de Comminges de Bramevaque stands in Bramevaque (Hautes-Pyrénées), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Perched on a promontory above Bramevaque, in the Barousse valley, the ruins of the castle of the counts of Comminges tell the story of the medieval Pyrenees. The 12th- and 13th-century keep still stands proudly, while the surrounding walls and the Romanesque chapel, once decorated with carved arcatures and checkerboard patterns, survive only as evocative ruins. Visitors come here for the atmosphere of an authentic medieval site, left untouched by any modern reconstruction.
