Château de Launaguet, Historical castle in Launaguet, France
The castle exhibits terracotta decorations with lion heads and griffons adorning its facades and lookout turrets throughout the exterior structure.
Jacques-Henry Dufay, Baron of Launaguet and Prefect of Montauban, acquired the estate in 1843 and rebuilt it in 1845 after a fire destroyed the previous manor.
Architect Auguste Virebent designed the interior decorations and furniture, incorporating his signature terracotta work throughout the castle's architectural elements.
The castle, located at 95 Chemin des Combes, now serves as the town hall of Launaguet and opens for guided tours during Heritage Days in September.
The entrance features two pillars supporting a phoenix carrying a coat of arms, while a 19th-century greenhouse imported from the Netherlands stands in the park.
