Château de Calmont d'Olt
The Château de Calmont d'Olt is a castle situated in France, in the Aveyron ''département'' in the ''commune'' of Espalion.〔(Ministry of Culture )〕 Perched atop a basalt dyke at an altitude of 535 m, it overlooks from 100 m the town of Espalion and the valley of the Lot. It provides a panoramic view of the Aubrac highlands.
== History ==
Flint fragments and a polished stone axe are evidence of occupation of the site for 5000 years. The ''ministerium Calvomantese'' was first mentioned in 883, in documents from the Abbey at Conques. It has always had a military significance, commanding the road from Rodez to Aubrac and, more widely, the crossing of the River Lot on the Toulouse-Lyon route.
The building of the castle was begun in the 11th century built and continued until the 100 Years War with the building of a second curtain with eight towers in 1400. Beyond this date, there was no further development. Abandoned by its owners in the 16th century, the castle fell to ruin.
The castle, in its present state, is an important milestone in the history of castle building in medieval Rouergue. It bears witness to the architectural adaptations of castles to the technical progress of the 100 Years War.
