Château du Cayla

About

The castle of Cayla is located in the municipality of Moyrazes - near Rodez - in the department of Aveyron (France). It is built at the top of a steep hillside, which is located above the Aveyron River. Moyrazès, who still has a very old stone bridge on the Aveyron, served as a stage on the road from Villefranche-de-Rouergue to Rodez. The castle in the centre of the village was a residence of the bishops of Rodez destroyed around 1500.
