The ruins of the Cranhac castle stand on a rise overlooking the Oust river, near the hamlet of the same name in the commune of Peillac. Built during the Middle Ages, likely in the 14th century, it was the seat of a lordship holding high justice rights before being destroyed during the Wars of the League. Stripped of its stones to rebuild the village in the 18th century, the site now preserves only scattered remains, though it retains a recognised scenic value.
