CHÂTEAU DE COLOMBIERS

COLOMBIERS , Hérault – Cultural heritage

About

Located in the town of Colombiers, on the banks of the Canal du Midi, the castle, of which there are written traces as early as the 12th century, has been modified many times since its medieval origin. It is the only castle located on the banks of the Canal du Midi. Uninhabited for 15 years, it is now being renovated. It reveals little by little its architectural originalities. One can see, among other things, magnificent historical cellars under the castle, where tiled vats that were used as fermentation tanks for wine in the 19th century. These cellars must be distinguished from the “Cave du Château”, which houses the tourist office La Domitienne. It was Gabrielle Lagarrigue who, as the owner of the castle at the time, had the “Cave du Château” built at the very end of the 19th century, as the cellars under the castle had become too small. One hundred and twenty years later, it is still women who take up the torch and bring it back to life.
