The Broken down Castle/The Ruins

(I wanted to call this post the ruins but Tamati wanted to call it the broken down castle.... so it is called both!)

Last week we went and visited some friends of Mum and Dad in Saissac. After lunch we went to visit the local chateau (castle) which is really old! One of the rooms has been fixed up and is used for parties and stuff.

The castle is all broken but you are allowed to climb it and you can go down the path next to it and find the old village. It is so old you cant see any walls there is only one layer of bricks where the houses used to be - the houses only had one room.

It was fun to climb around and look at the old towers which used to be used to guard the village.
