During the summer season, the castle offers a sound and light show with dazzling frescoes on its façade.
A must-see tourist attraction in the region, the Château des Ducs de Duras offers a fascinating tour. From the basement to the top of the tower, you'll pass through the medieval kitchens carved out of the rock, and the room known as the "secret room" with its surprising acoustics. You'll see the magnificent wooden framework, and the apartments of the Duke and Duchess, refurnished by the Mobilier national..... The château is also the scene of numerous events.

Mention spéciale pour les 2 spectacles auquel nous avons assisté.
Le spectacle de fauconnerie est majestueux, les fauconniers font un travail remarquable ! Le spectacle du tournoi équestre était fabuleux ! J'ai adoré le jeu d'acteur de chacun avec une mention spéciale pour le chevalier noir ! Guillaume était exceptionnel dans son rôle, j'ai énormément rigolé à ses répliques.
Je tiens à féliciter toute la troupe qui travaille en tant que fauconniers, cavaliers et mousquetaires, merci à Guillaume pour son savoir et sa bienveillance pour les rapaces, à Manon, Jonathan, Madi, Coraline, Gaelle et Romain pour le travail qu'ils font.
