Château de Montréal, Medieval castle in Peyrehorade, France.

Montreal Castle maintains complete ramparts from the 12th century, overlooking the valley with a central keep converted into residential quarters.

The castle lord contributed to General Talbot's defeat at the Battle of Castillon in 1453, receiving a reliquary containing a sacred thorn as reward.

The castle's Renaissance chapel contains exceptional 16th-century sculptures, representing a rare example of this art in southwestern France.

Visits take place from July to August, with admission fees of 6 euros for adults and 4 euros for visitors between 8 and 18 years old.

The castle's underground areas reveal natural chambers and a vaulted staircase, indicating the presence of subterranean water systems in the local limestone.
