Le château de Montarnaud , here seen from the other side of the valley, has a long history. When it was first built in the 11th century, it belonged to the lords of Montpellier. Reconstructed (14th.), besieged and partly destroyed during the Wars of Religion and dismantled by Richelieu it got rebuilt in the 17th. century. Since then it is owned by the family of Aynac Turenne, whose descendents still live ther today
