La Caze castle, Sainte-Ιnimie.

One sight of the towers.
Other sight of the towers.

In the canyon and on Right Bank of the Tarn river, this castle of the 15th 16th 17th 19th centuries is classified historic building since 1988. Private property, hotel establishment.
Property of Soubeyrane Alamand and Guillaume de Montclar at the 15th century, it belonged then to Frayssinet, then as from the 17th century with the family of Maillan which made bored bays and made make remarkable interior installations. The towers were rebuilt at the 19th century.

Sainte-Enimie is a french commune, located in the department of Lozθre of the Languedoc-Roussillon area, populated of 509 Santrimiols in 1999, distributed out of 88 km², that is to say 6 hab./km².

At the bank of the Tarn river, and fountain of Burle, the village of Sainte-Ιnimie is located between the two large causses Mιjean and Sauveterre.

Sainte-Ιnimie is one of the "Plus Beaux Villages of France", one of the more beautiful village of France.

The commune of Sainte-Ιnimie gathers several quite as beautiful villages and hamlets the ones as the others, Like Castelbouc, Hauterives, Prades, Saint-Chιly-of-Tarn, which are on banks of the Tarn river, whereas Boisset, Champerboux and Sauveterre, are on causse of Sauveterre.

According to the legend:
Enimie would have been the daugther of Clotaire II, (584-629), king of the Francs from 613 to 629, and dedicated its life with God. It contracted leprosy thus pushing back its suitors. With the advertisement of an angel, she cures herself by a bath taken in the Fountain of Burle. Its life of holiness, then will occur on the spot, where she died about 628.

Hello Joλl,
A good capture of this massive fortress. The castle is clearly put in context with the surrounding countryside with the added benefit of the foreground trees helping to relieve the austere lines of the architecture. I like the soft light and colours. Very good sharpness. Well done.

Ce charmant village ou la pierre fait la loi a meme son chateau que tu a eu a la paparazzo, Joel. Dans une lumiere d'octobre qui seduit les photographes. Ton deuxieme apparition avec Ste-Enimie contribue a la riche presentation de ce village sur TE et peu a peu on se dit: moi aussi je dois y aller. Encore une tres belle photo dans ta galelrie, deja riche, dont on est abonne.

Amicalement

Bonjour Joλl,

Une photo qui rend bien l'austιritι de ce chateau enfoui dans la vιgιtation au mileu d'un relife escarpι. Les contrastes forts et le cadrage renforcent opportunιment cette impression. Une trθs belle profondeur d'image grβce ΰ cdes plans successifs bien dιlimitιs.

Hi Joλl,
Always very interesting to check the map view first to see where your new picture is taken... We did not see this in reality, but I do enjoy your photo here. This is a very impressive and strongly fortified castle in a very beautiful valley. Interesting note too, as usual!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hi Joel,
spettacolare la veduta di questo castello incorniciato dalla vegetazione e sormontato da montagne che si chiudono a V.
Grande ricchezza di dettagli, ottima gestione della luce.
Buona serata
Antonio

Bonsoir Joλl,

Les arbres et les montagnes cadrent bien le chβteau. La prise de vue permet de voir les dιtails et les couleurs de l'architecture du chβteau La Caze. La lumiθre est bien gιrιe, elle a un bel effet sur les couleurs. Bonne aoirιe.

Ciao Joel,
mi piace questo castello con la natura che con i suoi bei colori fa da cornice, difficile da gestire la luce ma comunque sei riuscito ad ottenere una immagine magnifica.
ben fatto
Giorgio

Hello Joel,
An impressive looking castle, it looks impregnable with those solid stone walls. Superb perspective, the fortress surrounded by the beautiful autumn colours looks completely at odds with its environment.
Lovely depth, the view past the castle on to the precipitous valley is wonderful.
Regards
Peter
