Listed as a Historic Monument, you are entering a fascinating part of French history in the Cathar Country: The oldest mention of the first castle dates back to 1155. The current castle, probably built at the end of the 16th or the beginning of the 17th century, replaced an older building. The castle consists of a main rectangular building with one floor and an attic, and two low wings, partially destroyed, to the north, enclosing the courtyard to the east and west. The original entrance was to the east; this semicircular archway is now concealed. The castle is built on a platform overlooking the village. On the attic floor, there is a fireplace bearing the inscription "Noble Anne de Mauleon" and the date 1630. The shield in the center of the mantelpiece depicts a lion in high relief, standing against a three-towered castle. This castle primarily reflects 17th-century architecture. It underwent several renovations, particularly at the end of the 17th century and from 1763 onwards. Recently, under the supervision of the Architects of France and thanks to a strong conservation effort by the current owners, work has been carried out on the structure of the building. The West wing and the great hall have been fully renovated (notably with central heating). The attic has also been redesigned to offer a superb living space with a view of the surrounding lands. Among the completed work, you can appreciate the replicas of the original doors from the early 16th century, made from oak, chestnut, and cedar wood. Inside the castle, the seven original fireplaces, large windows with stained glass, tiled floors, and wooden ceilings have been preserved. A third of the castle has been renovated: On the ground floor: Kitchens with a large fireplace and toilets. The great meeting and reception hall, now a living room. Toilets On the 1st floor: A living room with a fireplace Bedroom An office with a beautiful mezzanine Toilets On the 2nd floor: Bedroom Bathroom with bathtub. Each room has 4-meter-high ceilings. The castle offers four energy sources (wood heating, independent of the fireplaces, underfloor heating, gas heating, and a water heater). The 10 rooms mentioned in this description are the ones that have been renovated, but the castle has many more rooms to be renovated and attics with great potential

A comfortable chateau refurbished in the 18th century and perfectly restored, its enclosed garden, numerous outbuildings and separate grounds with swimming pool, between Toulouse and Agen. Built on a rocky outcrop and enclosed by fortified walls, the commandery overlooks a few neighbouring houses and enjoys a 360° view of the surrounding rolling countryside. Sheltered from view, the property is also particularly quiet since the village is only accessible via a small road. The adjacent buildings that compose the architectural complex are arranged in a coil shape around a grassy courtyard and the former chapel of the “Knights’ Manor”, which became a church in the 15th century. Although it forms a harmonious whole, different buildings stand out due to the masonry of their façades, their roofs and other architectural elements specific to the successive periods in which the property was remodelled, such as the patios or the windows. Once a Knights Templars monastery and then by turns a wine storehouse and a residence, the horseshoe-shaped building presents traces of its functions as a former fortified castle as demonstrated by the arrow slits, loopholes and scars resulting from the multiples modifications to the façades over the centuries. The walls, composed of an amalgam of unpointed massive rubble stone masonry and ashlar stone, are characteristic of medieval constructions. With a surface area of 450 m², it has two storeys, including the attic space, and is topped with a gabled roof bordered by a triple Genoise corbel. It was only recently that a tree-filled landscaped piece of land below the village was annexed to the property. Today, sheltered from view, it includes a swimming pool and pool house in need of a bit of refreshing.

50 minutes southeast of Paris, an authentic 17th-century chateau surrounded by moats, its two entrance pavilions and 11-hectare grounds. Behind the first entrance gate, the driveway leads to a stone bridge, which spans the moats filled with water. At the end of it, the main gate surmounted with a coat of arms and wrought-iron décor opens onto a cobbled courtyard, which is organised around a central circular lawn. The chateau stands directly ahead along an axis that follows the path of the sun throughout the day. On either side, two pavilions, facing one another, are integrated into the property’s overall symmetry and bordered by flowerbeds, which include an impressive Pierre de Ronsard rosebush. Built at one end of the cobbled courtyard, the chateau is characterised by its symmetry and its brick and stone masonry topped with slate roofs with rounded hayloft dormer windows, which date the chateau’s construction to the beginning of Louis XIII’s reign. All the windows and doors are framed with ashlar stone. Behind the chateau, a garden, enclosed partially by moats, leads to a drawbridge, which provides access to the grounds. These are organised on each side of the central walkway, which is aligned with the chateau and main entrance. The estate was the property of the de Vigny family in the 17th century – of whom the poet Alfred de Vigny was a direct descendant – up until 1791, the date on which it was sold as national property following the emigration of the de Vigny family during the French Revolution. Built in the 1610s, a portion of the chateau was burned down during the Revolution and partially reconstructed in 1844. The chateau, including the courtyard, entrance pavilions, moats and bridges over the moats are today protected as historical monuments.
