Château de Garro, Medieval castle in Mendionde, France
The Château de Garro includes the main building, farm structures, terraces with supporting walls, gardens, and a former half-moon shaped moat.
The castle was destroyed in the 13th century by order of the English king, then reconstructed in the 14th century and renovated again in 1700.
The property housed the first agricultural school in the Basque Country before it moved to Hasparren under the name Lycée Armand-David.
The castle, located at 5131 Behère Ko Plaça et Garro in Mendionde, received official historical monument status on November 6, 2015.
The last legitimate heir of the Garro house, Ramuntxo Biscay dit Garro, maintains a claim to ownership of the estate.
