The Castle Carondelet
The Castle Carondelet

Carondelet Castle is a lowland castle in the village of Crupet.

Erected in the first half of the 13th century, the fortified house has three levels in coarse limestone rubble crowned by a half-timbered storey topped with bricks, under a slate saddleback with butt and core. A staircase turret, which later embraced the left corner of the main facade, gives access to the upper floor. Only the three lower levels date from the Middle Ages. As for the imposing half-timbered level, it does not predate the 16th century, with repeated alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Element of interest: a projecting latrine is hung on the second floor of the southern face.
The castle has recently been restored. The collaboration with a team of diverse specialists, including archaeologists and historians, has meant that the medieval Donjon de Crupet proudly reflects in the water again.
