The walk to the castle from the Lower Town where the Upper Town Square is a very pleasant classic. The visit to the castle itself is quite short but the place is authentic and the view of the town of Mauléon, the surrounding countryside and the Arbailles massif is sumptuous. What a way to spend a pleasant moment with your family or as a couple.

Great views over the Town . The castle has been partially restored by a local historical society and at time of writing costs 3 euros to enter . Interesting to imagine how many people and animals would have been inside in a time of siege .

A pretty little castle! € 3 per person (no cb). Very cool, but it does quite quickly. Well preserved and beautiful view from the top of the ramparts.

Pretty little castle which deserves to be restored. The visit is short, so the price is not excessive, it is 3 euros per adult person. There are wooden games available in the yard, it's nice. However, I remove a star because I personally find that the site is not optimized enough and could do much better.
