The very origin of the name Beaufort intrigues historians. It would come from the Latin Bellum Fortis ("powerful fortress"), a name that recalls the defensive importance of the site in the Middle Ages. Observing the relief surrounding the castle, it is easy to understand why this promontory was chosen to monitor the passage routes of the Minervois.
