Manoir de Monpeyrat stands in Le Bugue (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, second half of the 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Monpeyrat manor in Le Bugue, Dordogne, originated as a fortified house in the thirteenth century. Its owners undertook substantial modifications from the late fifteenth century onward, creating the structure visible today: a single-storey residence with a square staircase tower marking its eastern facade. The tower entrance features a depressed arch decorated with crockets, topped by a winged bird flanked by two pinnacles.
