Castle on a peninsula in Lanobre, the tympanum of the entrance door bears a bas-relief with the arms of the Estaing family.

The building we see today was built in the 15th century on the foundations of a 13th-century fortress overlooking the Dordogne. Since the construction of the dam in 1951, the château has stood on a peninsula, evoking a certain similarity with the land of Scotland. Val consists of a main building flanked by six towers topped with pepper-pots. The tympanum of the entrance door is adorned with a bas-relief depicting the coat of arms of the d'Estaing family. In the film Le Capitan, Jean Marais climbs one of the towers. The château is illuminated on summer evenings.

Visite historique intéressante pour les adultes et les enfants y compris les expositions temporaires de beaux arts. Il me manque une buvette car tout était fermé autour quand nous y sommes allés.

Mooi kasteel, entree niet duur. Ligt aan een meer waar je ook kan zwemmen of een waterfiets kan huren.
