A veritable fortress dating from the 10th century, the Château de Tournoël only really began to take on its modern look from 1200.

Classified as historical monuments, the castle can be visited (opening dates to be checked on the official site).

This fortified castle built during the 9th and 10th centuries

on a rocky peak at an altitude of 600 meters in

overlooking the plain of Limagne. He was watching

the surroundings of the city of Riom, commercial capital

and judicial office of Basse-Auvergne, as well as the abbey

royal of Mozac. The position of isolation and overhang

gave the castle its reputation as a building

impregnable.

The foundations of this fortress extend over 75m

long and 25m wide.

Major restoration work is being carried out

since 2000.
