Motorhome area of Fabrezan, la porte des Corbières (Aude)

Fabrezan is a small picturesque village located in the Corbières, halfway between Carcassonne (35 km) and Narbonne (30 km). It is crossed by the Orbieu river and surrounded by wide avenues with magnificent hundred-year-old plane trees. This old medieval village was once fortified. There are still significant remains of fortification, including the Tour Carré, 30 meters high and dating from the 12th century. Since 1951, it has been classified as a historical monument in France. Among its many buildings, the Saint-Vincent church perfectly demonstrates the development of the village between the 13th and 19th centuries. Fabrezan also knew one of the greatest poet-savants of the 19th century: Charles Cros, renowned in particular for his research on color photography. A museum is dedicated to him. The vineyards are numerous on the borders of Fabrezan, whose vines are used to create the Corbière AOC wines. The Caveau de Charles Cros invites you to taste this quality product. Several hiking trails start from Fabrezan. For instance the 4.2 km La Peyrouse sports course, which will let you discover the surrounding nature and some vestiges of the region.
