The Château de la Cosse stands near Veyrac, on the road leaving Limoges toward Saint-Junien. Built in the second half of the 18th century, it presents a formal courtyard flanked by outbuildings, two pavilions - one housing a chapel - and facades organised around a central bay topped with a pediment. Inside, visitors can find panelled rooms, a main staircase with a wrought-iron rail, and a former kitchen converted into a library. The estate sits within a landscaped park laid out in the 19th century by the Comte de Choulot.
