Very pretty abbey

Castle with exhibition about Josephine Baker. Very nice park and views of the surrounding area and the Dordogne. Entry €12/adult (2019). In 1938 the castle was first rented by Josephine Baker and then purchased in 1947. She arranged for electricity and water connections in the castle and in the adjacent village of Milandes, which became the first village in the Périgord to have these amenities. Josephine Baker also commissioned a complete renovation of the interior. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Abbey of Our Lady of the Nativity of Cadouin is a former monastery created in 1115 in the Dordogne! Imposing monument to see in the area

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

The twice-daily raptor show is also worth seeing.
