Today owned by the Dordogne department, the castle recognized as a Major Site in Aquitaine and classified as a Historic Monument!

If you come hiking, don't forget your binoculars! Throughout the seasons, it is possible to observe mallards, teals, grebes, whistling ducks, gray herons... Plantings of shrubs and different species allow songbirds to find shelter and food in winter.

The lake is accessible for walks all year round. For fishing, you must take into account the opening periods and the regulations in force.

This magnificent castle is open to visitors. In summer you will find many activities there, even including night markets within its walls. It is located on a hill and has defensive constructions. It is a fine example of a castle. Like most castles in France, numerous architectural transformations have taken place over the centuries. All year round, magnificent works of art are exhibited in the large rooms. One of the owners of this castle, Charles de Biron, met a rather tragic end because suspected of plotting against King Henry 4, he was beheaded in the courtyard of the Bastille prison castle in Paris in the 17th century.
