Origin and history

Latude Castle is a building located in the municipality of Sorbs, in the Occitanie region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. This monument remains partly mysterious for historians and visitors.

In the general context of Occitanie, castles have often played a central role in the social and economic organization of the territories. They served as places of power, protection or residence for local lords. In Sorbs, as in other villages in the region, these buildings were linked to agriculture, livestock and trade that structured daily life.
