FREVILLE MICKAEL

The views from the Château Royal are absolutely amazing — looking out over the sea and the colorful town of Collioure is worth the visit on its own. However, the inside of the castle was a bit disappointing. There isn’t much to see beyond the empty stone walls, and the exhibitions felt limited and not very engaging. Considering the entrance fee, we expected more history or interactive displays. Overall, a nice stop for the scenery, but the interior could be improved to make the visit more worthwhile.

Well its been quite a while ago since I was there , 1983 summer of 83' went with some school mate's on interrail with USIT student travel,,was amazing trip and experience was on the beach and sand so hot i was hopping over the surface ohhh. Ahhh ohh ahh 😍 think I had my first ever pizza with olives 🫒 there , oh it was strange the first taste of 🫒 oh my god in heaven,, now I absolutely love olives

A fantastic place to visit. Spectacular views of the surrounding area from almost every angle so a great place if you like taking photos. Guided tours are available in French and they have written guides available in several languages. There is plenty of interesting information and displays about the history of the area. There is an art gallery floor with lots of beautiful pieces of work. I would describe the place as family friendly - we saw lots of young children and there was plenty of space for them to run around in the courtyard and have fun. Good, clean toilets and a place to refill water bottles. It cost us 7 Euros each to get in (August 2025) and was well worth the visit. We parked in the car park at the top of the town and used the free shuttle bus to get into the busier areas.

Very nice castle. It is a big place with many viewpoints and interesting exhibitons.

Beautiful ruins and tourist attraction. Views from the top were breathtaking!

Beautiful castle, feels a bit like a maze, there are so many ways and path and it’s one of the best spot to witness the beauty of the city meeting the sea Not expensive, free for under 26, a lot of documentation and information about the history of the castle, loved it

One of the biggest and ancient castles on the region. It’s a true royal fortress as it says. There are a lot of groups of students visiting some excursions so make sure you are prepared. In the castle there are some temporary expositions including the one dedicated to the history of the place in 1930s. Moreover you can find an escape room and a projecting performance. At the end of the visit you will see the underlying rooms of the fortress. It’s as breathtaking as the view from the highest tower.

Great views over Collioure which feel maybe more worthy of the 7 Euro admission than the castle itself. I felt a little underwhelmed at first, perhaps because many of the rooms are empty, but the more I explored the more I enjoyed the visit. Would definitely recommend a visit for the views and the historic reminder of the area of the years especially during WWII
