To make a day of it

Château de Duras stands in Duras (Lot-et-Garonne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century (?), 14th century (?), 17th century, 18th century). Adult admission costs 11 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on August 9, 2026.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Dropt valley, the château de Duras preserves a medieval base reworked in the 17th century beneath its round towers. Visitors can see a quadrangular main building flanked by four corner towers, two residential wings connected by superimposed galleries, and the Petit Château's oratory decorated with stucco panels depicting the theological and cardinal virtues. The site's history is tied to the Got and Durfort families, and it bears witness to the Hundred Years' War along this border between the French and English crowns.
