Highlight • Other

This dwelling was built around the middle of the 16th century (1553), in the form of a crenellated house with a leak. In 1562, nine machicolations were drilled above the entrance gate which once ended, at both ends, with two turrets, only one of which remains. The postern is framed by two pilasters and surmounted by a triangular pediment decorated with fire pots. With this house was built a terrace. The other farm buildings are of recent construction, as well as the chapel in front of the gate.

Saint-Martial Castle

Highlight • Other

Château Saint-Martial de Jarnac is an elegant neo-Renaissance-style residence, built between 1882 and 1884 for Maurice Laporte-Bisquit, a cognac merchant and mayor of Jarnac.
Its main façade is organized around two polygonal towers and a central H-shaped plan; the facades are decorated with ceramic panels, a tribute to the founding family.
The château boasts a majestic stone staircase with a wrought iron railing, large reception rooms adorned with woodwork and gilded stucco, and a landscaped park.
The building served as a hospital for wounded soldiers during the First World War and later became a home for art collections.
Listed as a historic monument in 2014, the château now houses guest rooms and remains a testament to the prestige of cognac houses during the Belle Époque.
