Château de Tarde, Historic manor in La Roque-Gageac, France

The Château de Tarde presents a distinctive L-shaped structure with a round tower covered in traditional stone slabs and features mullioned windows on its triangular facade.

Built in the 15th century, this manor gained historical monument status in 1951 and belonged to Jean Tarde, a notable humanist who received a telescope from Galileo.

The Renaissance architecture of Château de Tarde reflects the intellectual legacy of its inhabitants, including the renowned sociologist Gabriel Tarde and cartographer Jean Tarde.

Located in the heart of La Roque-Gageac, the private residence opens its doors during Heritage Days, allowing visitors to explore its historical architecture.

A vaulted passage beneath the ground floor of the château serves as a public pathway, integrating the structure into the daily life of the village.
