Château de Calberte, Medieval castle in Saint-Germain-de-Calberte, France.
The castle features a square keep measuring 11 meters high, with a rectangular structure containing two levels and battlements attached to its foundation.
The castle appears in documents from 1092 and changed ownership between the Anduze and Budos families before its abandonment in the early 15th century.
Archaeological excavations in the surrounding medieval village revealed fifteen houses with dual-purpose architecture, combining livestock areas and residential spaces.
The castle opens during summer months, offering exhibitions about restoration work and archaeological discoveries, with entry fees supporting site maintenance.
The castle's remote location protected it from being used as a quarry, allowing for an authentic restoration process starting in 1964.
