About the location

Château de Morlanne

Carrère du Château 64370 MORLANNE

Pyrénées-Atlantiques

Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The Castle of Morlanne, sentinel of Béarn, located on the borders of the Landes and the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, is part of the network of fortifications implanted by Gaton III of Foix-Béarn (known as Gaston Fébus) during the Hundred Years War. Erected in 1373 the Castle of Morlanne is one of the most beautiful examples of Febusian construction. Its architecture mixing stone and brick makes it an atypical medieval fortress testifying to the astute processes of its Languedoc architect Sicard de Lordat. Over the centuries, this building has lost its defensive vocation by becoming an inhabited residence and then an abandoned ruin. The restoration work initiated by Raymond and Hélène Ritter in 1970 enabled the rescue and rebirth of the fortress. Owners of a rich collection of objects, they decorate with taste the interiors of the castle. The Ritter couple decided to bequeath this ensemble to the Pyrénées-Atlantiques Department in 1971\. Castle and collections are protected Historical Monument
