    Magnificent castle with a magnificent view when you descend from the waterfalls

      Part of the circuit of "Villages perched in the Black Mountain", Roquefère is a magnificent example. Set between two steep mountain sides, this tiny village has only 77 inhabitants at the last census. It is dominated by the castle built on a rock protuberance. The latter offered a surveillance point on the road between Carcassonne and the Albigeois. Its origin dates back to the 12th century, and it has undergone only a few changes in its configuration since feudal times, apart from the two square towers and the south facade redesigned in the 17th century. The castle has always been occupied since its origins. It now belongs to a private person.
      You should also know that you will find a drinking water tap on the small square next to the road, right next to a fountain with a metal wheel (see photo).
