Château de Montbrun - Dournazac (87) 2012.wmv
La forteresse de Mornas (Vaucluse - France)
(EN) Built in XIth c. by the earl of Toulouse, is dominates the Rhone valley. Most of it has been destoyed and ruins of the chateau and fortress are currently being restored. Animated and period costume visits in the summer.
(F) La forteresse de Mornas, dans le département du Vaucluse, se dresse sur un éperon rocheux de la rive gauche du Rhône, dominant le village de Mornas établi à son pied et les environs.
L'occupation du site de la forteresse remonte au moins à l'époque romaine. Les vestiges d'un oppidum ont été découverts au sud-est de la forteresse, de même que plusieurs sites contemporains en contre-bas de la montagne.
Mornas est mentionné pour la première fois au ixe siècle (Rupea Morenata), et fut tour à tour propriété de l'abbaye d'Aniane3, de l'archevêché d'Arles puis des Comtes de Toulouse. Tandis qu'un village se développe au pied de la montagne, le site du castrum se fortifie en continuité avec l'oppidum romain. Ces premières fortifications étaient très probablement en bois..
La forteresse va alors être longuement disputée par les comtes de Toulouse et les archevêques d'Arles, en raison notamment de sa position stratégique. En 1209, pendant la Croisade contre les Albigeois, le comte Raymond V, accusé de sympathiser avec les hérétiques, est forcé de léguer plusieurs de ses places fortes, dont Mornas, à l'Église. Mornas repasse ainsi sous le giron de l'archevêque d'Arles, avant d'être reprise par le Comte de Toulouse jusqu'au Traité de Paris en 1229, selon lequel toutes les possessions comtales à l'Est du Rhône passent sous l'autorité du Roi de France, à l'exception du Comtat Venaissin, et de facto Mornas, qui appartient désormais au pape5. Ce dernier confie l'administration du Comté au Roi de France jusqu'en 1274, date à laquelle le pape Grégoire X reprend en main son administration. La forteresse est placée sous la tutelle des Chevaliers de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem. Ces derniers rétrocèdent la forteresse, coûteuse à entretenir, en 1305.
La place-forte jouera un rôle important de défense lors de la Guerre de Cent Ans, notamment contre les compagnies de routiers qui ravagent le pays à plusieurs reprise. Ces troubles cessent à la fin du xive siècle, marquant ainsi le début d'une période d'accalmie qui durera jusqu'à la deuxième moitié du xvie siècle et les Guerres de Religion.
Négligée par l'Église pendant tout ce temps, la forteresse, mal entretenue, tombe facilement entre les mains des troupes protestantes en 1562 dirigées par Montbrun, lieutenant du Baron des Adrets, qui fait précipiter les réfugiés et la garnison du haut de la falaise8. Dans les années qui suivent Mornas est alors successivement aux mains des catholiques et des huguenots.
Les troubles cessèrent à la fin du xvie siècle, et la forteresse, perdant son rôle défensif, tombe peu à peu dans l'oubli et l'abandon. À partir de 1977, sa restauration est entreprise sous l'impulsion de l'association des Amis de Mornas. La réhabilitation se poursuit encore aujourd'hui, et de nombreuses animations et reconstitutions sont proposées pendant la période estivale notamment.

Looking for somewhere near the sea, with the best surfing in Europe, in
a village with charm, shops and restaurants, a walk from a fabulous
lake for swimming, with access to hundreds of kilometres of cycle
tracks AND a good holiday letting proposition at a price that?s
manageable? Look no further! Looking for somewhere near the sea, with
the best surfing in Europe, in a village with charm, shops and
restaurants, a walk from a fabulous lake for swimming, with access to
hundreds of kilometres of cycle tracks AND a good holiday letting
proposition at a price that?s manageable? We think we might have just
the thing! This modern, 2 bedroom duplex cottage apartment is one of
four in the building. It is situated in beautifully maintained gated,
communal gardens of 2500m2 (0.61 of an acre) and the property has its
own private garden of 55m2 as well. The current owners not only make
use of it for their own holidays but also let it, the income being
around 7/8,000 per annum. The outgoings are low ? the local taxes
amount to 530 annually with an extra 118 for the television licence.
Satellite television, broadband and telephone are installed. Most of
the contents are available for sale separately. The accommodation
consists of 2 good-sized bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, a shower room
with WC and a living room of approximately 25m2 with open-plan fitted
kitchen. There is a ground floor cloakroom with WC. French windows lead
out to the terrace, a deck and the garden behind. To the side, there is
a lovely sunny patio. A fence and pergola, covered in climbing plants,
lends privacy and offers a tranquil and beautiful space in which to
relax, chill out, eat, drink, listen to the birds, sunbathe or
barbecue. There is also lockable storage in an outbuilding. The
property is just a 2 minute walk to all the amenities of the village
which has a great selection of shops, bars and restaurants as well as a
cinema. There is also a large lake with a beach which is just a 10
minute walk. The nearest beach is 6km - about 10 minutes in the car or
a cycle ride on the cycle tracks through the forest. The Cte Landaise
stretches from the Dune du Pilat to the north, near Arcachon, to the
Adour estuary at Bayonne, a natural playground of hundreds of
kilometres of ocean beach, forest trails and shimmering lakes,
interspersed with family-friendly resorts such as St Girons Plage,
Vieux Boucau and Moliets Plage and all-year-round towns such as Leon,
Capbreton, Soustons and Europe's undisputed surf capital, Hossegor. The
jewel in the crown is Biarritz ? chic and lively and adored by the
Parisians. And if all of that is not enough to keep you occupied, the
Spanish border and the ski stations of the Pyrenees are just a short
drive. A wide variety of water sports is available locally and there
are countless kilometres of cycle and walking trails. Golf and
horse-riding are also easily accessible. The vineyards of Bordeaux are
a pleasant day-trip away. Landais and Gascon cultures mingle towards
the north with the celebrated Bordelais cuisine and to the south, with
Basque and Spanish influences, making for great variety in the local
restaurant menus. The natural environment, range of activities and, of
course, exceptional beaches, make the Cte Landaise a fantastic holiday
destination. Access to the region is easy with flight connections to
numerous UK destinations from the nearby airports at Biarritz, Pau and
Bordeaux. For those who prefer a more leisurely progress, there is the
Portsmouth/Santander ferry or Eurostar from London connecting with the
TGV network to Bordeaux or Biarritz.

Attached gite (1 en suite Bedroom) * Apartment (2 en suite bedrooms) *
Owners' house (2 bedrooms and bathroom) * Large enclosed courtyard
garden * Secluded swimming pool * A very popular tourist area * Ideally
situated for passing trade * 298m2 Habitable space This interesting
property is in a small Dordogne village and consists of 2 large stone
houses, one of which has been divided into a gite, an apartment, a
large dining room and sitting room and the other being used as the
owners accommodation. The property has recently registered as a B&B and
Table d'Htes and has been cleverly thought out to enable the en suite
bedrooms of the gite and the apartment to be used as B&B rooms to give
complete flexibility. The courtyard garden at the back of the houses
was originally the barn and there is scope for further development of a
part that is still covered to create a further gite, if desired. There
is a raised terrace overlooking the vineyards which catches the evening
sun and the pool area adjoins the courtyard and is completely secluded.
