Castle of Aiguillon, Historical castle in Aiguillon, France.
The Castle of Aiguillon features rectangular windows with molded frames and a sculptured pediment depicting the Lot and Garonne rivers.
Emmanuel Armand de Wignerod, the second Duke of Aiguillon and minister to Louis XV, initiated the castle construction in 1765 under architect Leroy's direction.
The castle transformation from a medieval fortress to an aristocratic residence between 1765 and 1783 reflects the architectural evolution of French nobility.
The castle, now functioning as the Stendhal Lycée, stands at Place du 14-Juillet in Aiguillon's center at coordinates 44.3018, 0.337207.
The original design included two symmetrical wings, but only the left wing was completed, leaving the right wing permanently unbuilt.
