In Coly-Saint-Amand, Dordogne, the Château de la Grande Filolie raises its machicolated towers and lauze roofs in the heart of the Périgord Noir. Built mainly between the 15th and 17th centuries on earlier foundations, it keeps the look of a fortified manor with a square tower, a round tower and the remaining slots of its former drawbridge. A small chapel marked with a Maltese cross and 17th century wood panelling can also be seen. The estate passed through several Périgord families, the Beaulieu then the Gaubert, before changing hands repeatedly in the 19th and 20th centuries, including a restoration funded by François Coty.
