Crowning a 40-meter-high rocky spur, this 11th-century castle was a stronghold of heretics and then a key bastion of the Hundred Years' War. It is distinguished by its unusual entrance carved into the rock and its intact 6-story keep, 70 meters high, offering an exceptional panorama.
The history of Château de Gavaudun spans nearly a millennium, marked by heresies, great medieval sieges, and strategic alliances between Périgord and Agenais.
