Château de Villemur

Château de Villemur is a manor house in the spa town of Ax-les-Thermes built in Anglo-Norman style across four floors. The building contains fifty rooms including multiple dining and living areas plus ten bedrooms with high ceilings.

A prosperous businessman named Georges Goubeau built the house between 1910 and 1919 during an era of wealth and growth. The Fedou family owned the property for about a century before it passed to the municipality in 2018.

The manor was built by a wealthy businessman for personal use and reflects the lifestyle of the upper class in the early 1900s. Visitors can see how the spaces were arranged for entertaining and family living.

The property uses thermal water from the local springs for its heating system, linking it directly to the spa town's traditions. Visitors should plan time to explore the numerous rooms spread across the four floors at a comfortable pace.

The building was constructed with advanced techniques from the early 1900s and displayed modern design choices for resident comfort. This blend of technical progress and luxury architecture remains uncommonly documented in the region.
