Château de Monteton stands in Monteton (Lot-et-Garonne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Standing on a rise in the Lot-et-Garonne countryside, the château de Monteton takes the form of a U-shaped manor flanked by two wings, reached by a ramp crossing a dry moat. The arrow-slits and remains of a drawbridge still visible tell a particular story: that of a Protestant family who kept its faith while outwardly converting after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. Held by the Digeon de Monteton family for more than two centuries, the estate fell into neglect before being partly restored.
