Discover Mauléon Castle and the Basque region!

Overlooking the town of Mauléon-Licharre, this castle is one of the most iconic historic sites in Soule.

Built in the Middle Ages, this fortified castle occupied a strategic position between Béarn, Navarre and the Basque Country. Having served in turn as an English and then a French fortress, it bears witness to the great rivalries that have shaped the region’s history.

Today, its ramparts and towers offer a real journey back in time.

Accessible on foot, the site offers a pleasant walk with breathtaking views of the valley. It’s the perfect outing to discover the soul of Soule, amidst lush green landscapes and medieval heritage.
