Description
Penne, Tarn, France
Penne castle is a castle of the twelfth century, built directly above the village, on an impressive rocky outcrop.
The ruined castle is perched over 120 meters above the bend of the Aveyron river.
This castle is opened to the public but still under restoration, scaffoldings can be seen in the photo.

IMPRESSIONNANT
Wonderful old castle and capture my friend!!!
Imagine the stories it could tell!
I love these images. To see photos of places I will never visit is a gift.
WONDERFUL IMAGE
An impressive structure. I heard recently that there is in France a project where craftsmen build a castle, with those very means by which the time castles were built ... A fantastic photo, Jean-Claude!
Great shot!!!!
Wow, what an imposing location for a castle. Superb shot!!
It was supposed to be a really impregnable fortress.
Fantastic view!!
beautiful
Oh la la, il est bien temps de le restaurer avant qu'il ne soit trop tard,et qu'un nouveau pan d'histoire ne s'écroule. L'emplacement défensif était très bien choisi, mais hélas il est difficile de s'imaginer toute la splendeur des murailles d'alors - et l'impression d'écrasement des villageois. Avec ta photo on voit par contre que le village a su résister au temps. Un sacré contraste.
