La Toque à Huriel is one of the few quadrangular donjons from the 12th century remaining in France. While running, you can admire the impressive medieval fortress, which was once the residence of the powerful lords of Huriel, and admire the panoramic view from the top of the tower. The dungeon also houses a museum which presents the local heritage and culture of Huriel.

There are two beautiful listed 13th century monuments in this small Bourbon town with a feudal past: the Romanesque church of Notre-Dame and the donjon de la Toque, the remains of an old castle. Alain-Fournier and Georges Sand talk about it with tenderness in their novels.
