Martin M. Miles' photos with the keyword: Le Barry

The chateau de Montpeyroux (= Castellas Montpeyroux) was founded around 1070, to secure the village Montpeyroux (seen right) and the strategic routes in the area. Severely damaged during the 100 Years War, later rebuilt, but finally abandoned during the 15th century. The large walls seen here are a result of a "reconstruction" of the 19th century. On the foot of the hill is the hamlet Le Barry. All the green areas seen from here are - vinyards!
