Montmorin Castle is a medieval castle in ruins that dates from the 12th century. From its ramparts, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the mountains, discover its ancient architecture and its history. The castle is open to visitors from July 1 to August 30, every day except Monday, from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. You must book a guided tour in advance, in French or English, by contacting the guide on 06 80 75 24 98 or by email at guide@chateau-de-montmorin.fr. You can also visit the small museum located inside the castle, which displays weapons, tools, furniture and archaeological objects from different eras. Classified as a historic monument since 1985, the castle is a proud heritage of the Montmorin family of Saint-Hérem, one of the most powerful noble families in Auvergne. Don't miss this opportunity to discover a hidden gem of French culture and nature!
