Origin and history

Loda Castle is a building located in the municipality of Lantosque, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. This monument is part of the historical landscape of the Vesubia Valley, where defensive or seigneurial constructions were frequent.

In this Alpine region, castles often played a central role in the social and economic organisation of local communities. They served as checkpoints, residences for lords or shelters during times of unrest. The absence of accurate data on Loda Castle does not allow for an accurate chronology or function.
