Origin and history

The Château de Pont Bourguet is a monument located in the hamlet of Pont Bourguet, on the commune of Larroque, in the department of Tarn in the Occitan region. Built in 1850, it is located at the bottom of the village of Puycelsi, on the banks of the river La Vère. This castle, of style not specified in the sources, fits in a natural setting marked by the presence of the river.

The castle experienced a fire in 2003, when it was in full restoration. This event has marked its recent history, but details of damage or specific consequences are not mentioned in available sources. Despite this incident, the building retains notable architectural elements, such as its three reception halls and two outdoor terraces.

On the architectural plane, the Château de Pont Bourguet consists of a ground floor and a floor, with spaces dedicated to the reception. The outdoor terraces add a landscape dimension to the building, in harmony with its river environment. No information is available on any historic owners or significant events prior to the 2003 fire.
