Château de Puivert

Puivert

A fief associated with the Cathars and the Occitan troubadours — a court of troubadours gathered here in 1170. The keep houses the famous "musicians' hall", adorned with eight carvings of minstrels each playing a different instrument, a rare testimony to medieval secular culture.
