The Château de Sansac, located in the town of Beaulieu-sur-Sonnette, is a castle that dates from the Renaissance period.

Verteuil Castle is a historic monument in Verteuil-sur-Charente. It dates back to 1080. It was here that François VI de la Rochefoucauld (French writer) wrote his Maxims.

Although you cannot visit this chateau (it is privately owned by the La Rochefoucauld family) it provides a wonderful backdrop to the village and is truly a sight to behold from the river.

A first lord is attested with certainty in 1463. After the Revolution, the building is sold as national property and divided into 25 lots. It still had important remains from the 13th and 14th century during the 20th century. It was a set of square or rectangular plan of which there remains only the tower which surmounted the entrance and underground rooms. This postern would have been built in the 15th century. On either side of this entrance, a rampart led to a cylindrical corner tower. In the second half of the 18th century, residential buildings were probably built around the postern. They were demolished in the second half of the 20th century. The postern tower is pierced at its base with a vaulted passageway. It is flanked by a hexagonal turret containing a spiral staircase whose access is to the west, on the courtyard side, by a rectangular opening door surmounted by a semicircular tympanum with three hammered coats of arms.

Logis built around 1580 within the walls of an older castle. The old buildings were demolished during the sale to the municipality in 1946. The latter restored the house and created a glazed room and a concrete staircase. This Renaissance dwelling was remodeled in 1617. Large windows were opened in the 18th century. The castle is square in plan, confined by four corbelled corner turrets, on molded consoles.
