Of the 129 castles we list in Hérault, these 37 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 37 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Classical period, spread across 27 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château d'O (open to visitors), Ancien prieuré dit " château " de Cassan (a listed historic monument), Château de la Mogère (Mogère Castle) (273 reviews), Château de Margon (Hérault) (open to visitors) and Château des évêques de Montpellier (open to visitors).

11 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 11 and the prices of 6 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 17 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Classical period, with 37 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
