Northern Catalonia
Northern Catalonia is a term that is sometimes used, particularly in Catalan writings, to refer to the territory ceded to France by Spain through the signing of the Treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659. The area corresponds approximately to the modern French département of the Pyrénées-Orientales. The equivalent term in French, Catalogne Nord, is used nowadays, although less often than the more politically neutral Roussillon. Sometimes French Catalonia can also be used.
Château de Castelnou
The Château de Castelnou (also called the Château Vicomtal) is a medieval castle in the commune of Castelnou in the French département of Pyrénées-Orientales. The village of Castelnou takes its name from the castle. The Latin castellum novum became in Catalan castell nou, the "new castle".
