Château Fort de Lourdes Tours

Château Fort de Lourdes played a key defensive role during its time. Now a historic attraction, you can only imagine some of the spectacles its fortified walls have witnessed.

This history-filled fortress is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Lourdes. But Château Fort de Lourdes isn't the only drawcard in the area. Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, and Massabielle Grotto are some other worthwhile sights close by.
