Gavaudun Castle

Highlight • Castle

Gavaudun Castle sits atop a forty meter high rocky outcrop which dominates the valley and must have been an ominous sight to any would-be invader. The castle was one of the last French fortresses during the 100 years war.

Lacapelle-Biron

Highlight • Settlement

This tiny village of Lacapelle-Biron would be the presumed birthplace of Bernard Palissy who belonged to the French Renaissance school. To pay homage to the child of the country, takes place every summer at the Bernard Palissy museum an exhibition of ceramics.

Biron Castle

Highlight • Castle

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.
