It is believed to have been built in the first half of the 13th century by Lady Rohesia de Verdun after her husband's death.

When this happened and the architect claimed her hand, she threw him from one of the windows, which is known as the 'murder window.'

The air is fresh and clear, with hints of earth and the sweet scent of blooming wildflowers. The area invites you to linger, take a deep breath and allow yourself to be captured by the natural beauty and tranquility of this landscape.
