The views are well worth the 20 minute walk up from the village. Stunning scenery

A wonderful piece of history unfortunately destroyed by the French government who paid to have the castle dynamited. A 15 minute climb from the village with great views. The history of the castle is well explained and you can really get a feel for the tragic history that unravelled there. As it is in ruins the visit doesn't take very long. It's off the beaten track and there weren't many tourists which made the visit even better. The village is lovely as well.
