Set on a rocky outcrop above the Loue valley, Excideuil castle has guarded the route between the Limousin and Périgord regions since the 11th century. Visitors can see two square keeps from the 12th and 13th centuries joined by a wall, a Renaissance-style residence with a corner tower, and an entrance gatehouse with a drawbridge flanked by turrets. The site is split between a privately owned section, the residence and keep, and a section belonging to the town, which is open for self-guided visits.
