I recently purchased a Toyota Yaris from SAT Japan and I'm very satisfied with the purchase. The car was in immaculate condition and at a very reasonable price compared to other dealerships. Their team was highly supportive and professional and helped me throughout the process, from the initial search of finding the ideal car to delivering it within the specified time period. I highly recommend this platform and will surely come again.

Château de Foix

The Château de Foix dominates the town of Foix. An important tourist site, it is known as a centre of the Cathars. Built on an older 7th-century fortification, the castle is known from 987. In 1002, it was mentioned in the will of Roger I, Count of Carcassonne, who bequeathed the fortress to his youngest child, Bernard. In effect, the family ruling over the region were installed here which allowed them to control access to the upper Ariège valley and to keep surveillance from this strategic point over the lower land, protected behind impregnable walls.

In 1034, the castle became capital of the County of Foix and played a decisive role in medieval military history. During the two following centuries, the castle was home to Counts with shining personalities who became the soul of the Occitan resistance during the crusade against the Albigensians.
