Châteaux de Lastours, Lastours, Aude, Languedoc, France.

Lastours (Occitan: Las Tors = Les Tours = The towers) is an unusual arrangement of three castle towers (a fourth was built later). The original castles belonged to the Lords of Cabaret, who held them in fief from the Trencavels. They received troubadours here, including Raymond de Miraval and Peire Vidal, who dedicated verses to the Cathar Ladies of the place. During the Cathar Crusade this was one of the most ardent centres of resistance to the French Crusaders.
