Castle of Cabrières, Medieval castle ruins in Cabrières, France

The Castle of Cabrières features two defensive towers that flank a central square keep, reflecting typical 12th-century military architecture in southern France.

Originally constructed in 1070, the fortress changed ownership multiple times and served as a garrison during the Hundred Years War in 1431.

The castle gained prominence when opera singer Emma Calvé purchased it in 1900, establishing a singing school and transforming it into a center for arts.

The castle remains are situated at coordinates 43.5684362, 3.3473894 in the Hérault department, accessible through rural pathways from the village center.

Local records mention that Théodebert, future king of Austrasia, departed from this castle with Countess Deoteria, who transported vine cuttings to Lorraine.
