It is one of the emblems of the French Renaissance. The Château de Chenonceau, built in 1513 by Katherine Briçonnet and embellished by Diane de Poitiers and Catherine de Medici, is unmistakable with its delightful structures rising above the Cher.

This is one of the twenty fortresses built at the end of the 10th century by Fulk III, the Black, the Count of Anjou, nicknamed the Black Hawk. The remains of the keep, restored by the architect William Dudley at the beginning of the 20th century, dominate the village.
However the keep suffered greatly following the bad weather in 2001.

Sitting on its limestone outcrop at the gateway to Quercy, the Castle of Turenne is open to visitors.
In the Guards' room from the 14th century, you can imagine how rich the castle was before Louis XV ordered it to be dismantled. He acquired it in 1738 from the previous Viscount, Charles-Godefroy de la Tour d'Auvergne, the Duke of Bouillon.
From the top of the César Tower which dates from the 12th century, there is a wonderful panoramic view. From there, you get an idea of the power of the viscounty which reigned as far as the eye can see in its golden age.
