Historical Origin And Design Inspiration
The Chateau de Belcastel is a medieval castle in the village and commune of Belcastel, on the north bank of the Aveyron River, downstream from Rodez in the Aveyron d?partement of France. The oldest part of the Chateau was constructed in the 9th century, and it grew at the hands of the Belcastel family. Later, for many decades, it was the seat of the famed Saunhac family.
The famous French architect Fernand Pouillon (1912-1986) discovered the castle in ruins in 1974. Pouillon decided to reconstruct the fortress, which had been abandoned since at least the 17th century. Pouillon himself undertook the restoration by hand, along with the help of a dozen Algerian stone masons, and 10 stained-glass experts. The work lasted only 8 years and called for great courage from him and his colleagues, due to the enormity of the undertaking, the chateau's dangerous location, and the fact that no machines were used in the daring reconstruction. Pouillon also undertook the restoration of the village, which is now recognised with the award of the title of "Un des plus beaux villages de France" ("One of the most beautiful villages in France").
