Château des Quat'Sos stands in La Réole (Gironde), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In La Réole, in the Gironde department, the Quat'Sos castle stands on a rocky spur overlooking the meeting point of the Garonne river and the Charros stream. Built at the end of the 12th century and completed in the following one, it owes its name to four identical corner towers, the four sisters, three of which still stand today. The southwest tower, known as the Thomasse, rises some thirty metres above the river and retains its medieval defensive features intact. Fought over repeatedly during the Hundred Years' War, the site lost its military role in the 17th century under orders linked to Richelieu.
