Privately owned and open to the public in July and August, the elegant Malvirade Castle offers an interesting historical tour.
Summer offers a unique opportunity to visit private properties that are usually inaccessible, such as this castle steeped in history. Built around a tower commissioned by Eleanor of Aquitaine, it was enlarged in the 15th century before welcoming Henri de Navarre a century later. In the 17th century, a wing was converted and formal gardens were laid out. A visit reveals a guardroom with a painted ceiling dating from 1520, illustrating mythology and hunting scenes. A small theater sometimes hosts shows. Visits must be booked in advance.
