To make a day of it

Château de Salvagnac stands in Salvagnac (Tarn), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). No visits are on record for this building.

The Château de Salvagnac stands at the top of the hill overlooking the village of the same name, in the Tarn department. Its horseshoe-shaped layout combines two medieval towers with classical 18th-century wings, the result of successive alterations since the 16th century. The building bears visible traces of an eventful past, from its capture by Admiral de Joyeuse in 1587 to the changes made in the 19th century.
