Château de Pibrac, Renaissance castle in Pibrac, France.

The red brick castle features precise stone carvings around windows and doors, with tall towers rising at each corner of the structure.

Built in 1540 under architect Nicolas Bachelier's direction, the castle underwent significant changes during the French Revolution when its tower tops were removed.

The Quatrains cabinet contains 16th-century vaults decorated with mythological subjects where Guy du Faur composed his moral verses.

Visitors can access the castle grounds through the Henry IV portal, with guided tours available to explore both interior and exterior sections.

The first floor gallery displays ceramic decorations created by artist Gaston Virebent in 1893, adding 19th-century elements to the Renaissance structure.
