# Motte de Juhègues

Torreilles, Pyrénées-Orientales, Occitanie

Motte de Juhègues stands in Torreilles (Pyrénées-Orientales), in the Occitanie region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The motte de Juhègues is what remains of a medieval fortification built on an artificial earthen mound, in Torreilles in the Pyrénées-Orientales department. This is not a castle in the usual sense but an archaeological site: a castle mound roughly fifty metres long, of which only the north-western part survives today. Excavations carried out in the mid-20th century uncovered fragments of pottery and Roman roof tiles, evidence of earlier occupation of the site. Visitors come here to understand a type of earthwork fortification typical of Roussillon rather than to see standing masonry.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
