Le château en bref
Château Montlaur, the founding element of the village of Poussan alongside the church of Saint-Pierre, takes its name from the Montlaur family, who took possession of the seigneury in 1210. Built in a U-shaped plan around a central courtyard, it has undergone numerous alterations: a vaulted hall was converted into a chapel by the Sisters of Saint-Charles in the nineteenth century, revealing sixteenth-century frescoes; two corner turrets dating from the seventeenth century survive. Listed as a monument historique in 2006, the château is privately owned, though its exteriors are open to visitors.
