Château de Miral
The Château de Miral (13th century) is a historical building on the territory of the commune of Bédouès, Lozère département, in the Cevennes mountains of south-central France, about 10 km east of Florac going towards Le Pont-de-Montvert on road "D998". The castle overlooks the confluent of the Runes River and Tarn River.
Its donjon was built towards the end of the 13th century as the seat of the Malbosc-Miral family. Its ramparts defended access to the upper Tarn valley. From the 14th to the 16th centuries, the Lords of Malbosc-Miral constructed their residence and outbuildings around the keep. The Lords of Malbosc-Miral were guillotined during the French Revolution and their possessions auctioned off in 1796. Restoration work on the castle began in 1980.
