Perched above Vézac, the château de Marqueyssac overlooks the Dordogne valley from a plateau planted with hand-clipped centuries-old boxwood, mixed with cypress trees and cyclamens. Visitors come mainly for this garden, listed as a remarkable garden of France, which offers views toward the châteaux of Castelnaud and Beynac. The building itself, a 15th-century manor house with two wings and a stair tower, is seen along the way through the grounds.
