Château de Gourdon, Medieval castle complex in Gourdon, France
The Château de Gourdon stands on a rocky peak at 758 meters altitude, overlooking the surrounding valleys and mountains of the French countryside.
The castle underwent three distinct construction phases, with initial foundations dating back to the ninth century when defensive structures were essential in the region.
The castle gardens feature century-old boxwood plants and monumental fireplaces that reflect the architectural preferences of French nobility through different periods.
The castle remains closed to general public visits and events, but interested parties can contact the administration through the official website.
Four massive arcades support the tiered garden structure, creating multiple levels that provide different perspectives of the Mediterranean coast.
