90 châteaux listed · verified entries first, then the most visited; alphabetical index at the bottom of the page

Of the 295 castles we list in Gironde, these 90 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 90 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Classical period, spread across 68 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Domaine de Certes (open to visitors), Château Haussmann (Haussmann Castle) (with a restaurant), Château Peixotto (18th century), Domaine de Malagar, actuel centre culturel François Mauriac (a listed historic monument) and Château Soutard (Soutard Castle) (on the historic monuments register).

32 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 25 and the prices of 8 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 16 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Classical period, with 90 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
