Situated at the exit to the village of La Roque Gageac following the river, this château is the residence of the Saint-Aulaire, a family of famous diplomats from the Périgord. It was built in the 19th century and completed around 1920.
This Neo-classical work was constructed in the 16th century Renaissance style by Laffilée for Monsieur de Saint-Aulaire, a French ambassador. This is a clever and skilful reconstruction, using stone with a patina that looks genuinely old, placed in matching shades in front of the red rock. The square tower with machicolations, the round towers and windows are worthy of note.
