High above the Dordogne River is Château de Castelnaud, one of France’s most impressive castles. The view from the hilltop over the Dordogne valley is magnificent and worth a visit for that reason alone.
A castle full of history
Inside the castle you will find an extensive collection of medieval weapons and armour, giving a clear idea of how people fought back then. On the bastions are lifelike replicas of siege weapons of the time, giving you an idea of medieval war tactics.
An adventure for young and old
There are guided tours, also in Dutch, where you will learn all about the castle’s history. Children can enjoy knightly games and exciting demonstrations of medieval weapons. This makes Château de Castelnaud a fun destination for a day out with the whole family!
