Château de Fages stands in Saint-Cyprien (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century). Adult admission costs 8.5 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Overlooking the Périgord noir near Saint-Cyprien, the Château de Fages combines the remains of a medieval keep with a Renaissance pavilion featuring mullioned windows and Ionic pilasters. Damaged and looted during the Wars of Religion and later left derelict at the end of the 19th century, the building is now being restored by a local association that opens it to visitors. Highlights include a vaulted chapel with a burial chamber beneath it, along with surviving sections of the old defensive walls.
