Château de Chabrillan, Medieval castle in Chabrillan, France.

The northern section of Château de Chabrillan features a square keep rising 20 meters high with walls measuring 2 meters in thickness.

First documented in 1150, the castle belonged to the Chabreihha family and remained inhabited until 1650 when the Moreton family left the premises.

The castle design reflects medieval defensive architecture with its high entrance accessible only by wooden ladder and strategic positioning above the village.

The fortress includes residential quarters, a round tower on the southern side, and an eastern well that supplied water to inhabitants.

During the French Revolution, the castle lost its roof and served as a stone quarry, with its materials repurposed throughout the commune.
