Château de La Léotardie in Nonac, in Charente, not in Dordogne. Listed as a Historic Monument, Château de la Léotardie in Nonac was originally the property of Hélie Léotard, then Archdeacon of Bourges. Part country house, part monastery, this former fortified castle was largely rebuilt in the 14th century and then renovated in the 15th. Visitors can discover a vaulted room and an ogival doorway on the ground floor. It is also possible to admire a medieval triple-nave barn a few hundred meters away. https://www.france-voyage.com/villes-villages/nonac-2918/chateau-leotardie-12663.htm

Primitive in style, built in the 11th or 12th century, the Saint-Eutrope church was built on the site of a previous place of worship. It was first a perpetual vicariate dependent on the abbey of Cluny. The building was restored and modified at the end of the 19th century by the architect Paul Abadie who mainly had the bell tower remodeled by adding a second floor, consisting on each side of three bays with two arches on a straight foot and topped with a fairly high pyramidal spire. It has a wooden frame covered in slate. Shortly before the storm of 1999, some work was carried out in order to restore its former character, in particular the unvaulted nave, thus revealing the original wooden frame. This work made it possible to uncover a small door leading to the outside located to the left of the nave and near the choir. Door that can be found in many Romanesque churches (such as the church of Montmoreau). The location of these doors is said to evoke the lance thrust to the heart that Christ received on the cross. This opening was transformed into a niche to house the statue of the Virgin and Child Jesus. The bell tower houses two bells: the first weighs 110 kg and dates from 1725, the second weighs 375 kg and dates from 1890. The exterior staircase leading to the bell tower is very special. It is of the self-supporting type: that is to say that each step sealed in the wall rests partially on the previous one. There are two other staircases of this type in the town. https://www.montmoreau.fr/index-module-orki-page-view-id-115.html
