Castelnau-de-Levis

Built around its medieval castle, Castelnau-de-Lévis grew into a small rural commune on the heights above the Tarn valley, just north of Albi. It belongs to the Tarn department in Occitanie, where cultivated fields and wooded slopes shape the country between the river and surrounding plateaux. The ruins of the Château de Castelnau-de-Lévis remain the settlement’s clearest historic marker, recalling the defensive importance of these uplands in the Middle Ages. Nearby Albi, known for its brick-built episcopal city and Sainte-Cécile Cathedral, provides a striking urban counterpoint.
