Looming formidably on a prominent hilltop 8km south of Monpazier, this much-filmed château is a glorious mishmash of styles, having been fiddled with by eight centuries of successive heirs. Walking round the photogenic hamlet outside gives a great sense of its scale, but paying for an entry ticket allows you inside to see regularly changing exhibitions of contemporary art along with some grand fireplaces and a double loggia staircase supposedly modeled on one at Versailles.
Ticket sales end one hour before closing. A joint ticket with Cadouin cloister costs €12/8 per adult/child.
