Description
Standing on a rocky promontory, this 13th and 15th century fortress was remodeled in the 17th and 18th centuries. The Renaissance interior courtyard is decorated with a gallery with arcades and twisted columns. Inside, two rooms house frescoes from the 16th century. The first depicts hunting scenes, the second, monumental, evokes the labors of Hercules.
Since 1985, the castle has been the Contemporary Art Museum of Haute-Vienne.
