Cas Castle
Espinas A defensive stronghold, Cas Castle was built in the 9th century on a site occupied by the Gallo-Romans and has survived through the centuries (most of the current Cas Castle dates back to the 13th century).
The site of a Templar commandery in the 13th century, remodeled in the 14th and 17th centuries, it suffered severe damage during the French Revolution. The castle roof was restored at the end of the 19th century.
It was again ransacked during the Second World War and then completely restored starting in the 1980s.
Its revival is thanks to its current owners, from a family of high moral standing, descendants of Claude-Marie de Lastic Saint Jal, who took possession of it in the 18th century.
Thirty years ago, they decided to raise it from its ruins and open it to the public (from April to the end of October, by appointment).
Gallo-Roman tower and French-style gardens, dovecote, church, fountains, hamlet, etc.
