Château de Digoine, 18th-century castle in Palinges, France.

The castle stands with its northern facade in baroque style, featuring towers connected by dry ditches and an iron gate of honor.

In 1390, Robert of Damas married Marie of Digoine, marking the beginning of the castle's transformation from a medieval fortress to a residence.

The private theater, exotic greenhouse, and burr elm library, added between 1825 and 1842, reflect the cultural preferences of the Chabrillan family.

The castle opens from April to October, with guided tours limited to 25 people, and admission costs 12 euros for adults and 5 euros for children.

The central salon displays portraits of the Chabrillan family, providing insights into the ancestral lineage that owned the estate for generations.
