Château de Montcigoux, Medieval castle in Saint-Pierre-de-Frugie, France.

The Château de Montcigoux incorporates remains of a round tower and stands amid the rolling hills of the Dordogne region at 45 degrees north latitude.

Built during the 12th century, this fortified residence served as a strategic defense point for local nobles who controlled the surrounding territories.

The castle represents the architectural methods of medieval French fortifications through its stone construction and defensive features typical of the period.

Located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, visitors can reach the castle by following the departmental roads that connect to Saint-Pierre-de-Frugie commune.

The structure combines elements from different construction periods, maintaining an original round tower that dates back to its earliest fortification phase.
