In 1262, the land of Bourg already belonged to the Ollivier family. In 1363, Sir Ollivier, Baron de Bourg, paid homage to the Prince of Wales, the remarriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine having made the castle of Bourg-Charente an English possession. It then passed to the Bragier, Gouffier, Pons de Pons families, to the Count of Miossens (lord of Pons and governor of Guyenne). The current castle was built by Pons de Pons, to replace the fortified castle destroyed by Marshal de Sancerre while trying to take it back from the English. A Le Camus de Neville was the last lord. In 1921, it was bought by the Marnier-Lapostolle family to set up its cognac cellars there, necessary for the production of Grand Marnier. Since 2012, there are also stills used for the distillation of bitter oranges used in the recipe for Grand Marnier liqueurs.
