Château de Cavagnac, Medieval castle in Cavagnac, France.

The castle features a tall Romanesque tower from the 12th century and a monumental main building constructed in the 18th century with plain stone facades.

The initial construction by Guillaume-Robert de Cavagnac in the 12th century was established near a Roman villa, Villa Cavaniacus, mentioned in 868.

The castle maintains its status as a historical monument since 2013, demonstrating architectural evolution between the 12th and 18th centuries.

Visitors can observe the marks of revolutionary attacks on the family coat of arms carved in stone at the center of the courtyard.

The Guiscard family, owners of the castle in the 14th century, held high justice rights in the Viscounty of Turenne.
