The Château de Latour, or Château de Latour-sur-Sorgues, is a castle in the village of Latour-sur-Sourges in the commune of Marnhagues-et-Latour in the Aveyron département of France. LocationThe castle stands on a rocky promontory overlooking the Sorgues river.[1] HistoryAlthugh its origins are much older, the present castle dates from the 15th century. It has been owned by three families, Latour, Roquefeuil and Bonald.[1] DescriptionThe castle comprises two residential buildings in the south and east arranged in an L-shape, linked at the extremities in a curve. It includes a keep, chemin de ronde, polygonal échaugettes and twin arcaded windows. Inside is a 16th century painted ceiling[2] and a reconstruction of a cloistered nun's cell.[3] Since 1991, the castle has belonged to the commune. Activities and visits are organised by the Association des Amis du château de Latour (Association of friends of the Château de Latour), which has undertaken its restoration. Some rooms have been converted for use as a gîte.[1] See also
