The Château du Colombier stands on the slope of a valley that once overlooked the road linking Marcillac-Vallon and Salles-la-Source, in the Aveyron department. Its square 14th-century keep, later converted into a dovecote, adjoins a 15th-century residence built around a paved courtyard. Visitors can see a pointed archway, a spiral staircase, and, in the west wing, traces of painted decoration. The building bears the mark of several centuries of alterations, continuing into the 19th century.
