Fred Urrutia
September 2, 2025, Château de Rochechouart

Now home to the Haute-Vienne Museum of Contemporary Art, it was once the dynastic residence of the Viscounts of Rochechouart. The keep, built in the 11th century, is surrounded by the remains of a 15th-century building.

Footbridge which allows you to cross the Charente, which swells the waters of the beautiful Lavaud Gelade lake. It is one of the largest lakes in the Creuse, after Lake Vassivière. Wilder than the latter, it is located in the heart of the Millevaches Regional Natural Park and is classified as a Natura 2000 area.

The exterior of the castle is impressive. It is built on the basis of a square, each corner of which is protected by a tower. The moat surrounds the whole building. In summer, the castle can be visited by reservation. Information on the local tourist office website: https://www.tourisme-charentelimousine.fr/fiche-sit/chateau-de-rochebrune-5656147/#truncate
