Small town at the confluence of the Céou and the Dordogne. The picturesque silhouette of the town is dominated by Castelnaud Castle, a medieval fortification from the 13th century. The castle was repeatedly the scene of battles and sieges until it was abandoned during the French Revolution.
In 1966 it was classified as an historic monument and has been carefully restored. Today it is a museum and displays over 200 medieval weapons and armours.
