Dominating the Forez plain high up on a promontory, the Château de Couzan, built in the 11th century, constitutes a remarkable example of medieval military architecture. Situated on the municipality of Sail-sous-Couzan, this fortress has preserved its keep and its fortified surrounding walls. From this hilltop location, there is also a beautiful view of the Forez mountains.
