Château de Commarque

The forgotten fortress of Commarque, where the magic of the place gives way to the imagination! Hidden away in the woods, just a few minutes from Sarlat, in the heart of the Périgord Noir, this jewel reveals the many facets of our history. The 100 Years' War, the seigniorial families, the Wars of Religion, let yourself be transported by a guided tour or an audio guide to discover the uniqueness of this timeless place!

Château des Milandes

World-famous thanks to Joséphine Baker, the château remained the undisputed home of the de Caumont family until the French Revolution!

Castle of Castelnaud-la-Chapelle

In the heart of the Périgord Noir region, 9km from Sarlat, Castelnaud castle, built on a rocky spur, offers a magnificent panoramic view over the Dordogne valley. Founded in the 12th century, it is a perfect example of medieval fortification. Today, it houses a major collection of weapons and armour. On the bastion, the most powerful siege engines of the Middle Ages are reconstituted in attack position.
