The castle, which still stands proud as a famous pattern of past struggles, was very defensible because, in addition to being surrounded by the city walls, it had a redoubt over escarpment that made it inaccessible. It is a square building, although the wall on the west side is not strictly straight, crowned with battlements, without vaults and with a small door halfway up the north wall, probably for communication with the wall on this side and another door, also small, on the wall northeast on the ground floor. Only a few vestiges remain today.
In the Guard.
Built between the XII and XIII. It has a splendid panoramic view from its 1056 meters of altitude.
