    Very worth seeing castle-fortress ruins with a beautiful panoramic view

      Castle Quéribus was one of the last refuges of the Cathars who had not fled to Italy (including Verona). The castle fell in 1255, after Louis IX ordered it to be taken. The stories differ about the circumstances. The fact is that the then lord of the castle, knight and protege of the Aragonese king eventually reappeared at the Spanish court.

      At the top the wind roars around your ears. Here the Atlantic and Mediterranean winds meet and fight each other around Quéribus. Take care of your glasses, your hat and your traveling companions. It can get tough.
