Just a stone's throw from Sarlat, in the heart of the Périgord Noir, the Château de Castelnaud offers an unforgettable visit for young and old alike, taking you back to the time of lords and knights!

150 metres above the Dordogne valley, experience history in the present from the spectacular panorama of this 13th-century fortified castle, home to the Museum of War in the Middle Ages.
