To make a day of it

Château de Cavagnac stands in Cavagnac (Lot), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Cavagnac castle stands in the Lot department on a site occupied since Roman times, where a villa was already recorded in the ninth century. A tall tower known as the 'Romanesque' or 'Saracen' tower, dating from the twelfth century, stands alongside an eighteenth-century main building whose restrained facade echoes the style of grand Parisian townhouses. In the main courtyard, a family coat of arms carved into a large stone still bears the marks of damage inflicted during the Revolution.
