On the banks of the Charente, the Château de Cognac symbolizes the town's reputation. Today a Cognac House, it welcomes visitors to help them discover its history, but also that of the eaux-de-vie produced there.

Chesnel Castle, which has the appearance of a fortified castle, is intriguing. However, the niches here have a purely decorative function. The architecture of this building, erected in 1610, is therefore rather original. You can visit the castle by making an appointment via this link: https://patrivia.net/visit/chateau-chesnel

This imposing holm oak is approximately 500 years old. We do not know if it was planted on the occasion of the birth of the future king of France François I in 1494, on the occasion of his coronation in 1515 or on the occasion of his death in 1547. What we do know, however, is that it measures 17 meters high with a trunk circumference of 5.5 meters. Classified as a “remarkable tree”, it was even elected “tree of the year” in 2014 by the National Forestry Office.
