Château de Chauffailles, Medieval castle in Chauffailles, France.

The castle consists of a rectangular main building with two round towers and stands next to the Botoret stream, lined with plane trees.

Construction of the castle concluded in 1400 under Jean d'Amanzé, whose family resided within these walls for eleven consecutive generations.

The castle now functions as an exhibition space for temporary and permanent displays of paintings and sculptures, featuring works by regional artists.

While regular visits are not permitted, the castle, owned by Chauffailles municipality, serves as an exhibition venue and art workshop space.

The northeastern tower, dating from the 15th century, remains the oldest architectural element of the castle, representing its medieval military past.
