Hike up to the old Château-Naillac with its twin 12th-century donjons—towers without buttresses—standing just above the Creuse River. Inside, you'll find remnants of prisoners' graffiti, a hall with a magnificent Romanesque fireplace, and a model showing what the castle once looked like.

A lovely quiet, gentle stroll across the bridge with panoramic views on both sides. This bridge leads to (or from) the town of Le Blanc which has all amenities, such as cafes, shops and pharmacies.

Château Naillac is a heterogeneous castle which has known several uses over the centuries. From the 12th century it was a fortress but much later, in the 18th century, it became a prison. It then became a school and now houses the Brenne Ecomuseum.
