Château de La Coste (Lot)

The Château de La Coste is a ruined castle in the commune of Grézels in the Lot département of France. The castle exhibits military architecture of the 14th and 15th centuries. It was restored at the end of the 16th century after it was ruined in 1580 during its capture by Protestant troops. Originally a simple watch tower, the square plan castle is flanked by two massive square towers in the west and two round towers in the east. It comprises a rectangular corps de logis extended by two wings and a curtain wall in the south which encloses the courtyard. The north wing (former stables), having been used as a source of stones to build the house of a former owner, was equipped with an open gallery to ensure weatherproofing. The structure was served by a right handed staircase. The two square towers still have the latrines in the corner made with the corps de logis. The castle was sold as state property in 1793. The castle is privately owned and closed to the public. It has been listed since 1961 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.

Château de Labastide

The Château de Labastide, also known as the Château de Marsa, is a castle in the commune of Beauregard in the Lot département of France. Construction dates from the 13th, 15th and 17th centuries. The Château de Labastide is made up of a main building with two wings forming, with the central building, obtuse angles. The ordered and rectangular plan suggests that the whole edifice dates from the 17th century. Certain parts, however, are older. The square tower which flanks the building to the north east dates from the 13th century. The south east gateway has traces of machicolations which date from the 15th century. Internally, little remains of the original decor. The first floor of the central part is a single room of vast proportions which still has traces of frescoes, a stone floor as well as a plafond à la française (French-style ceiling: joists the same width as the spaces between them; see Plafond à la française in French Wikipedia). The castle is privately owned. It has been listed since 1979 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.

Château de Labastide (Lot)

Le château de Labastide ou de Marsa est situé sur la commune de Beauregard, dans le département du Lot. Historique La famille de Marsa est une famille de chevaliers de la châtellenie de Caylus. Elle apparaît au début du XIIIe siècle dans le cartulaire des Templiers de Lacapelle-Livron. En 1267, les Templiers accusent le seigneur de Marsa de percevoir indûment les dîmes dues à l'Ordre. Alphonse de Poitiers reçoit la plainte de l'Ordre et les Marsa, chevaliers modestes, doivent s'incliner. La tour carrée qui flanque le château au nord-est peut dater de cette époque. Elle est implantée près de la bastide de Beauregard. Aux XIVe siècle, on trouve des membres de la famille écuyers à la cour pontificale à Avignon. Jean de Marsa occupe le château après la guerre de Cent Ans. Les ravages provoqués dans la population l'oblige à faire venir de nouveaux laboureurs pour peupler ces terres. Il les accense vers 1460. En 1504, leur d'un dénombrement du ban et de l'arrière-ban, Pierre de Marsa fait la liste de ses biens mais il habite dans son fief de Saillac. Au XVIIe siècle, le château appartient à Emmanuel de Lagardelle, un parent de la famille. Les enfants d'un de ses descendants ont eu comme précepteur Guillaume Lacoste, historien, auteur d'une Histoire générale du Quercy. En 1786 Jean de Saint-Martin est devenu le propriétaire du château. La branche cadette de la famille de Marsa de Saillac s'est éteinte au XVIIIe siècle. Le château a été inscrit au titre des monuments historiques le 27 juillet 1979. Description Le château est composé de deux corps de logis carrés reliés par un bâtiment rectangulaire qui doit dater du XVIIe siècle. Ce bâtiment repose sur une salle basse voûtée en berceau. La tour carrée qui flanque le bâtiment au nord-est peut dater du XIIIe siècle. Le corps de logis au sud-est porte des traces de mâchicoulis datant du XVe siècle. Toutes les fenêtres sont à meneaux. Les galeries du bâtiment central sont éclairées de part et d'autre par trois fenêtres. Elles conservent des traces de peintures murales et un plafond à la française. Les étages sont desservis par un escalier à vis.

Château de Lacassagne

The Château de Lacassagne is a château in the commune of Saint-Avit-Frandat in the Gers département of France. The Château de Lacassagne is thought to date from the latter half of the 15th century, with additions and alterations made in every century until the 19th. It originated as an ancient salle (hall) and was altered in the 15th century with the addition of a spiral staircase and windows. A residence was added in the 17th century. On the first floor, in a room known as the Salle des Chevaliers de Malte, the painted decor was done between 1620 and 1640 for Jean Bertrand de Luppé, prior of St Gilles, and intended as a replica of the grand council hall of the Knights of St John of Malta. Among the pictures are copies of Matteo da Leccio's paintings representing the attack on Valletta by the Turks in 1565. (The originals were in the council chamber of the Grandmaster's Palace in Valletta, Malta and were destroyed by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1798). In the 19th century, a west wing was added to the main building. The Château de Lacassagne has been listed since 1980 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture, is privately owned and not open to the public.

Château de Lacoste (Lot)

The Château de Lacoste is a ruined castle in the commune of Salviac in the Lot département of France. The castle dates originally from the 11th century. There were further additions and alterations, most significantly in the 12th, 15th, 16th and 18th centuries. The castle is built on the walls of older fortifications. It consists of three corps de logis grouped around a courtyard; a more recent building has grown along the park. A stone spiral staircase, in the angle formed between two buildings, gives access from the courtyard to various buildings at different levels. In the 18th century, a large perron was constructed at the length of the courtyard façade of the western logis. A second perron, now dismantled, gave access from the park to the southern buildings. Inside, rooms have kept their 17th-century woodwork, with plafonds à la française (French-style ceilings: joists the same width as the spaces between them; see Plafond à la française in French Wikipedia). The castle is privately owned and not open to the public. It has been listed since 1962 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.

Château de Lacoste (Salviac)

Le château de Lacoste est un château situé à Salviac, en France. Localisation Le château est situé sur le territoire de la commune de Salviac, dans le département français du Lot. Historique Les barons de Gourdon ont fondé la cité de Salviac au Xe ou XIe siècle. Il reste peu de traces du castrum primitif. Le château Lacoste dit « des templiers » est implanté sur l’ancienne tour des Cazelles, maison noble probablement érigée au XIIIe siècle par un chevalier vassal des barons à l’emplacement supposé de la partie occidentale de l'enceinte du castrum primitif. Cette maison noble comprenait une tour carrée et une aile occidentale contiguë. Dans son hommage de Bertrand de Gourdon au comte de Toulouse, en 1226, le fief de Salviac est inclus dans ses biens. Son fils, Guillaume de Gourdon, fondateur de l'abbaye Sainte-Marie de Gourdon, renouvelle l'hommage en 1246. Son gendre Aymeric de Malemort, fils de Géraud de Malemort, sénéchal du roi dans le Quercy, a recueilli l'héritage. Elle est vendue en 1310 à Pierre de Balène, puis achetée en 1337 par Philippe de Jean, seigneur des Junies. Un peu avant 1387, le fief devient une possession des Cazeton, qui deviennent barons de Salviac. À partir de 1438 la baronnie de Salviac revient aux Durfort-Boissières, qui l'ont conservé jusqu’à la Révolution. La maison forte est occupée au XVIe siècle par les du Sirech. La maison médiévale a été remodelée au début du XVIe siècle en articulant la maison autour de la tour circulaire d'escalier à demi engagée dans l'angle nord-est de deux ailes en équerre. Le château prend le nom de Lacoste au siècle suivant quand il est devenu la propriété des Gransault-Lacoste. Au XVIIe siècle, les membres de la famille Gransault de Lacoste sont chargés de la gestion des biens des seigneurs de Durfort. Leur réussite a permis à Pierre Gransault de Lacoste d'acheter le château en 1780 auprès des héritiers de Jean du Sirech. L'édifice est inscrit au titre des monuments historiques le 13 juillet 1962.

Château de Mirabat

The Château de Mirabat (Occitan: Castèl de Mirabat) is a ruined castle dating from before the Middle Ages in the communes of Seix, Oust and Ustou in the Ariège département of France. History In excavation at Mirabat, a shard of Roman amphora was found at the bottom of a water tank. It is the oldest of the Ariege's castles and one of the oldest castles in the Pyrenees. It was probably preceded by a "fire tower" built on the personal orders of Charlemagne. Mirabat was probably built to cope with a possible invasion of the Spanish Moors who passed through the pass of Salau, in sight of the castle. It became a garrison of the Viscount of Couserans in the 12th century to strengthen the frontier. Architecture The castle was a garrison evidenced by its size and location. It could serve as a grouping of people and there was no stately home. The legendary Mirabat Cave is allows access to the Château de La Garde below. It contained a golden bell that sounded the alarm at the approach of danger. It is a simple cavity that leads to a vertical well after 8 m and after 30 m the course ends with a small passage too narrow for the passage of a man. Name and location "Mirabat" is derived from the Occitan language mira abat, meaning to "look down". The choice of this strategic location was to monitor two routes leading from Spain, the Ustou and Martérat valleys, and the Salat valley from the pass of Salau. The castle overlooks the village of Seix. Castle defensive system The castle is part of an exceptionally rare defensive system associated with the Château de La Garde. The castle was constructed at a very early date: it was in ruins in the 14th century. Its walls are built of white marble. Property The property of the state and the commune, it has been listed since 1995 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.

Château de Mirabat

Le château de Mirabat est un château fort en ruines situé en Haut-Salat dans le département de l'Ariège, en France. Localisation Le château de Mirabat est implanté au sommet d'un piton rocheux à 1242 m d'altitude près du tri-point des communes d'Oust, Seix et Ustou. Toponymie Le nom mire en bas serait validé par la position en nid d'aigle destiné à l'observation. Description Seuls subsistent du château des vestiges de son enceinte sans tourelles d'angle. Des carrières ouvertes sur place ont permis de fournir la pierre. Historique Construite au XIIe siècle, cette place forte médiévale devait évaluer les invasions venues par les crêtes de la chaîne pyrénéenne en vis-à-vis, en coordination avec le château de la Garde en contrebas et en avant-poste. Aux XIIe et XIIIe siècles, son enceinte abrite une petite garnison, et son donjon domine tout le Haut-Salat, seigneurie des Roger de Comminges. Cependant, limitrophe des trois communes, il est surtout accessible depuis Seix, sans doute rattaché à la Taule, partie rive droite de la seigneurie. Le hameau de la Taula (table ou registre en occitan) doit probablement son nom à un ancien péage à la rencontre des chemins transfrontaliers. Au cours du XIIIe siècle, Roger de Balaguer et Odon de Taurignan sont les seigneurs de la Taule et de Seix. Ces deux chevaliers ne dépendent pas du vicomte de Couserans, mais sont affiliés aux puissants barons d'Aspet et seigneurs de Montégut, appuis historiques du comte de Comminges. Le rattachement direct de Seix et de la Taule au Comminges et dû sans doute à l'intérêt stratégique des cols transfrontaliers de Salau, Aula et Marterat, que surveille Mirabat. En 1667, Louis de Froidour, Grand-maître des eaux et forêts de Louis XIV en mission dans les Pyrénées, entend dire que Mirabat servait à allumer des feux la nuit ou faire de la fumée le jour, « ce qui était le signal afin que chacun eût à se tenir sur ses gardes ». Il a été abandonné dès le XIVe siècle sans doute du fait de son accès difficile. Les ruines sont inscrites au titre des monuments historiques par un arrêté du 11 décembre 1995. Accès Le château est uniquement accessible à pied par une longue randonnée offrant des panoramas remarquables.
