Take a tour of French Village of Castelnou in Castelnou, France – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
In the southeast of France, near the Spanish border, is the little village of Castelnou.
The beginnings of the town come from its tenth-century fortress, the Vicomtal Castle.
The town is built on the slope of a hill and looks out onto surrounding valleys.
In the medieval era, it was a fortified city, with a protective wall and gate.
Castelnou retains much of its historical appearance, with cobbled rock streets and old stone buildings.
Both the buildings and the green countryside make Castelnou a lovely place to visit.
