Château de Largentière, Medieval castle in Largentière, France
The stone fortress stands on a rocky outcrop above the valley of the Ligne River, featuring defensive towers and residential quarters.
Built in the 13th century, the castle controlled silver mines and served as a stronghold during conflicts between the Bishop of Viviers and the Count of Toulouse.
The architecture combines military fortifications with noble living spaces, reflecting the medieval period's social hierarchy and construction methods.
The castle offers guided tours throughout the year, allowing visitors to explore its towers, terraces, and historical chambers.
During the French Revolution, the castle transformed into a hospital, leading to structural modifications that remain visible in its current layout.
