In the most picturesque part of its course, the old town<\/strong> of Penne, overlooked by the ruins of its castle<\/strong>, occupies a remarkable site near the campsite in the Tarn<\/a>.
\nIts winding alleys have kept the atmosphere of yesteryear. Its castle, once a flagship of military architecture, remained abandoned for 450 years and was recently bought back to be rebuilt using traditional methods.
\nSince this process is long and costly, the current owners<\/strong> organize<\/strong> festivities and medieval entertainment<\/strong> throughout the season to promote their castle.
\nA visit to Penne Castle is a journey back in time, an immersion into the daily life of fortified castles.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
