Medieval keep of Montpeyroux

Montpeyroux

Description

Located in the heart of Montpeyroux, one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France, the medieval keep was built following the conquest of Auvergne under Philippe-Auguste. Its geographical position made it possible to protect the small villages around it.

From the top of its 33m, the keep of Montpeyroux was the central point of the fortress. Today, its access offers a 360° panoramic view from the top of the platform.
