Uninteresting visit, the explanations draw more from a badly learned history lesson than anything else, the disastrous meal meat barely cooked and cold vegetables starter frozen dessert without counting on the tense smile of the mistress of the house, to believe that she exquisitely smiles only when she is on fire......we felt more like disturbing than being welcome. I don't recommend this place 300 percent.

We had our wedding on 7/23/22. This place is magnificent and everything was perfect, but it is clearly thanks to our service providers and not to the owners. The owners of the places are hardly bearable. Speak badly to absolutely everyone, including our service providers, but this allows us to visit the castle, including the room we rented the next day, and to limit insulting our parents and our in-laws. We had cases of champagne stolen from us and the owner's husband was allowed to collect all the remaining bottles of wine. I do not recommend this place if you want respect and trust. Excellent value

Waste of time. Got there well within opening hours, waited and rang the bell 3 times for about 15 min. Nobody came to let us in. So we left again.

Château de Foix

The Château de Foix dominates the town of Foix. An important tourist site, it is known as a centre of the Cathars. Built on an older 7th-century fortification, the castle is known from 987. In 1002, it was mentioned in the will of Roger I, Count of Carcassonne, who bequeathed the fortress to his youngest child, Bernard. In effect, the family ruling over the region were installed here which allowed them to control access to the upper Ariège valley and to keep surveillance from this strategic point over the lower land, protected behind impregnable walls.

In 1034, the castle became capital of the County of Foix and played a decisive role in medieval military history. During the two following centuries, the castle was home to Counts with shining personalities who became the soul of the Occitan resistance during the crusade against the Albigensians.
