Château de Fleurac stands in Nersac (Charente), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century, second half of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Overlooking the Charente river in the commune of Nersac, Fleurac castle displays the typical silhouette of Charente manor houses with decorative crenellation, the result of an early 17th century rebuilding over the remains of a late medieval structure. The balustraded terraces, stone staircase and great hall decorated with 18th century plasterwork reflect the successive changes made to the building through the 19th century. On the north facade, traces of gothic mouldings recall the site's older origins, while the south facade carries neo-gothic additions from a later period.
