Castle of Mauriac Stay in a Templar castle in the heart of the Gaillac vineyards

Located in the heart of the Gaillac vineyards between Albi and Toulouse, the Château de Mauriac was founded in 1214 by the Templar Guiriaudus de Mauriaco, which gave rise to the Château de Mauriac.

It has been ranked among the fifty most beautiful private residences in France because it is fully furnished. It is a Pastel castle which cultivated Pastel until the 17th century, which was used to dye clothes blue and from which a ball called a coque was made, which gave rise to the Pays de Cocagne.
