In Haute-Corrèze, on the edge of a village, a 15th-century restored castle, with outbuildings and ponds, on a 73-hectare estate, more than 21 hectares of which are woods and land. The castle, whose oldest parts date back to the 15th century, was built on the probable site of a feudal motte from the 9th century. Its layout essentially follows the structure of the medieval walls, documented since the 13th century, which still organizes the site today. The north facade faces the village church and a neo-Gothic chapel of the estate built in 1898. It is integrated into the enclosing wall, which extends east and west and delineates immediate access to the property. Two gates provide access to the estate. To the northeast, the first leads to the gardens, parking areas, annex buildings, a swimming pool, and a passage to an honor courtyard. The second gate opens onto a driveway that runs along the western side of the castle to the honor courtyard. The stone facades and slates from Travassac have undergone complete restoration. The gravel honor courtyard is bordered by the two main wings, also called the "small" and "large" parts, built with three levels and arranged at a right angle. The courtyard is closed off to the south by a fortified wall that overlooks a zone of dry moats. The two wings are separated by a passageway that connects the courtyard to the back of the castle, its dependencies, gardens, and swimming pool. The small part extends along a north-south axis around a rectangular building flanked by a residential tower. The large part, oriented east-west, consists of several buildings and towers, including a spiral staircase tower and a square tower marking the angle of the right angle. To the south, an inner enclosing wall marks the transition to the estate's land and contributes to the staging of the castle, established as a belvedere. It is punctuated by stone staircases and, near the swimming pool, by a circular turret with a pepper-box roof.
