Montcuq Castle
Dating back to the 12th century, the castle keep stands proudly on a conical hilltop, a sturdy 24-metre-high tower. Nowadays, it houses a small museum dedicated to local connections and history, and you can walk up the (steep) steps to the top for a bird’s eye view of the surrounding countryside. It is only open to the public during July and August, but in other periods it is still worth walking up to the base of the castle to enjoy the views.
