Château de Lavaud-Blanche stands in Le Compas (Creuse), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
Located at Lavaud Blanche, a few kilometres south of Auzances, this château in the Creuse now takes the form of a manor house, rebuilt after being partly destroyed in the early 19th century. On its left side, the base of an old tower remains, now topped with a sloping roof, the only visible trace of an earlier structure. The main building, three storeys high, has five openings on its south facade. The estate still includes several farm outbuildings, most of which have been renovated.
