Chemin du Fort
Castle Fort Pyrenean Museum
During the conquest of Gaul, the Romans must have been the first to take advantage of the strategic position of the rocky outcrop.
In the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries, the almost impregnable fortress was the lordly residence of the Count of Bigorre
It then became a stronghold, from which to control the routes in the foothills of the Pyrenees that were disputed by the various princes, who were the policy-makers in the South of France. The population of Heavy which is entitled of refuge to the castle was saved during the various conflicts as the Albigeois Crusade or the wars of religion.
In the Fourteenth Century, it was permanently extended with a system of interlinking curtain walls and the construction of the keep that dominated three other towers that have since disappeared.
