    Castle with exhibition to Josephine Baker. Very nice park and view of the surroundings and the Dordogne.
    Admission 12 € / adult (2019).

     In 1938, the castle was first rented by Josephine Baker and then bought in 1947. It brought electricity and water connection in the castle and in the adjacent village of Milandes, which became the first village in the Périgord with these amenities. Josephine Baker also commissioned a complete renovation of the interior.

      The twice-daily raptor show is also worth seeing.

        The Chateau des Milandes, built in the late 15th century, was temporarily owned by the world-famous chanson singer and dancer Josephine Baker. During the Second World War she was a member of the Resistance and the Armed Forces of the Free France.
        In 1947, Josephine bought the beautiful castle with a view over the Dordogne and the "black" Perigord (part of the Perigord riddled with limestone caves). She married a world-famous conductor and together they created a rainbow family. From her travels all over the world she brought back a total of 12 abandoned children, adopted them and turned her village within a village into a global village. There are even more beautiful chateaus here on the Dordogne
