Château de Pommiers, Medieval castle in Vérac, France

The castle features a triangular enclosure with an entrance gate, a three-story gate tower, and segments of curtain wall overlooking the Vignague river.

Construction of Château de Pommiers began in the 13th century as a noble residence for the Pommiers family, who held the title of Sire.

The castle grounds contain a private chapel dedicated to Notre Dame, converted from former outbuildings at the end of the 20th century.

The castle includes underground sections with quarry galleries and tunnels, along with two former farm buildings used for wine storage and stables.

Archaeological discoveries in 1740 revealed Roman tombs, swords, vases, bones, and medals, including one from Emperor Antonin, beneath the castle foundations.
