Château d'Aspremont, Medieval ruins in Peyrehorade, France.

The remains of Aspremont Castle stand on an isolated hill, overlooking the confluence of the Pau and Oloron rivers in the Landes region.

The castle, built in the 11th century by the viscounts of Orthe, endured multiple destructions during conflicts in 1442, 1553, and 1559.

The departmental archives maintain detailed documentation about the architecture and social development of the castle in the Orthe region.

A scale model of the castle is being prepared for display at the Departmental Heritage Introduction Center of Landes.

The keep features a distinct seven-sided architecture with a four-sided spur oriented toward the main plateau.
