Castle of RoquefixadePhoto: Stéphane Meurisse, Ariège Pyrénées Tourisme
Enclave toulousaine en comté de Foix, Roquefixade demeure fidèle aux comtes de Toulouse du temps de la croisade contre les albigeois. Juché au sommet d’une impressionnante falaise, la forteresse de Roquefixade, depuis le XIème siècle, fait face à celle de Montségur.
