Listed castle Saint-Ferriol (11)

Listed as a Historic Monument, you are entering a fascinating part of French history in the Cathar Country: The oldest mention of the first castle dates back to 1155. The current castle, probably built at the end of the 16th or the beginning of the 17th century, replaced an older building. The castle consists of a main rectangular building with one floor and an attic, and two low wings, partially destroyed, to the north, enclosing the courtyard to the east and west. The original entrance was to the east; this semicircular archway is now concealed. The castle is built on a platform overlooking the village. On the attic floor, there is a fireplace bearing the inscription "Noble Anne de Mauleon" and the date 1630. The shield in the center of the mantelpiece depicts a lion in high relief, standing against a three-towered castle. This castle primarily reflects 17th-century architecture. It underwent several renovations, particularly at the end of the 17th century and from 1763 onwards. Recently, under the supervision of the Architects of France and thanks to a strong conservation effort by the current owners, work has been carried out on the structure of the building. The West wing and the great hall have been fully renovated (notably with central heating). The attic has also been redesigned to offer a superb living space with a view of the surrounding lands. Among the completed work, you can appreciate the replicas of the original doors from the early 16th century, made from oak, chestnut, and cedar wood. Inside the castle, the seven original fireplaces, large windows with stained glass, tiled floors, and wooden ceilings have been preserved. A third of the castle has been renovated: On the ground floor: Kitchens with a large fireplace and toilets. The great meeting and reception hall, now a living room. Toilets On the 1st floor: A living room with a fireplace Bedroom An office with a beautiful mezzanine Toilets On the 2nd floor: Bedroom Bathroom with bathtub. Each room has 4-meter-high ceilings. The castle offers four energy sources (wood heating, independent of the fireplaces, underfloor heating, gas heating, and a water heater). The 10 rooms mentioned in this description are the ones that have been renovated, but the castle has many more rooms to be renovated and attics with great potential
