Château de Tressan

En un regard

Le château en bref

The lordship of Tressan dates back to 969. The House of La Vergne, which acquired it in 1410, carried out major alterations to the château, which had been fortified in the 14th century according to an irregular quadrilateral plan punctuated by towers and pierced by three gates. Openings with Gothic or Renaissance decoration were added in the 14th and 15th centuries. The Bishop of Béziers visited it in 1605. The château gradually lost its defensive character in the 18th and 19th centuries and became a large bourgeois house. Municipally owned, it has been listed as a monument historique since 12 August 2015 and has recently undergone restoration.
