Najac - Château de Najac
Najac is set along a ridge above a bend in the Aveyron River. Najac was founded as one of the five bastides of (historic) Rouergue. The "faubourg" has the typical architecture of many bastide villages with timber-framed houses and commercial arcades around an open area. Today Najac only has a population of about 700, but over the summer months there are many tourists, as Najac is one of the "Plus beaux villages de France" - the "most beautiful villages in France",
The Château de Najac was built in 1253 on the orders of Alphonse de Poitiers, brother of Saint Louis, on the site of an older castle, built in 1100. The Knights Templar were once imprisoned here.
Possession of this castle, built 200 meters over the river Aveyron, was key to control of the region. After having been used as a stone quarry in the 19th century, the castle went into private ownership and by now is open to the public.
