Château de Fayrac stands in Castelnaud-la-Chapelle (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

On the banks of the Dordogne river, at Castelnaud-la-Chapelle, the château de Fayrac shows its towers and gatehouse within the well-known landscape of the valley, alongside Beynac, Castelnaud and Marqueyssac. The building combines remnants of a medieval fortified house with a residence inspired by Italian Renaissance style, altered in the 19th century. As a private property, it cannot be visited inside, though its architecture can be seen from the surrounding paths and viewpoints.
