विवरण
Travel back to the days of the Cathars on a sightseeing trip to 2 of their castles. Visit the Château de Quéribus and the ruins of the fortress of Peyrepertuse. Enjoy panoramic views of the Corbières. Stop for lunch in Cucugnan and more.
We depart in the morning to visit these two amazing ruined castles…. We start with Quéribus Castle, also called citadelle du vertige, which, as its name suggests will offer you a wonderful view, literally breathtaking. During the Cathar crusade, Queribus served as a shelter to the cathars.
This is sometimes regarded as the last cathar stronghold, in a sense it was. We take lunch in the pretty village of Cucugnan. After lunch, take the time to stroll through the medieval streets of this picturesque village and go to the windmill where you will be surrounded by vineyards.
Then head onto Peyrepertuse Castle, a ruined fortress and one of the Cathar castles. It was associated with the Counts of Barcelona and later the kings of Aragon. The name Peyrepetuse is derived from Peirapertusa, the Occitan word meaning pierced rock.
