Roquetaillade Castle

Inhabited by the same family since 1306, it is one of the 10 most beautiful fortified castles in France. Contemplate the ramparts, the towers, the dungeons as well as the first Renaissance fireplaces in Bordeaux. Behind its austere medieval facades, the whole universe of the great architect Viollet-le-Duc awaits you. In a Gothic Revival style, his creations are adorned with exuberant colors and patterns, a prelude to Art Nouveau. A real movie set that received Fantômas, Louis de Funès, Roger Moore...
In season, visit the museum with its Bazadaise breed, "the best meat in France" Jacques Chirac.
