# Château des Cars

Les Cars, Haute-Vienne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine

Château des Cars stands in Les Cars (Haute-Vienne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

At Les Cars, in the Haute-Vienne department, the ruins of a Renaissance castle tell the story of the rise and fall of the Pérusse family, once among the most influential in the Limousin region. Only two towers, an artillery rampart and a remarkably well-preserved 16th-century stable block remain from the once-vast residence, the stables still bearing painted scenes of horses on their walls. Excavations on the site have uncovered a wealth of objects, now shown in an on-site exhibition room.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
