I don't see any of these merlons on any of these castles ?
Montségur hasn't been destroyed completely.
With documents, a scale model has been done.
No swallowtail merlons.
Paris, Except for Montséqur, the Cathars did not build castles, but when regions converted to their religion, they acquired the older castles that were there. Montségur was rebuilt and expanded by Cathars in the early 13th century, then destroyed in 1244.

The chateau that you depict was built during the 17th century and has absolutely nothing to do with the Cathars of the 13th century. Here is a real medieval depiction of the Cathar Montségur:

Do you see a coned tower with balcony and window in your depiction? But I see one in the VMS depiction.
