Château de Cénevières, Medieval castle in Cénevières, France
The castle rises from limestone cliffs above the Lot River, featuring Renaissance architecture with towers, terraces, and large windows across irregular buildings.
Built in the 13th century, the fortress underwent transformations during the 14th to 16th centuries under the Gourdon family's influence during the Hundred Years' War.
The castle contains ten furnished rooms displaying artifacts from multiple centuries, including an alchemy cabinet with paintings depicting scenes from Ovid's Metamorphoses.
Visitors can explore the castle through 75-minute guided tours or 45-minute self-guided visits from April to November, with weekend openings from 10 AM to 6 PM.
The interior apartments preserve Renaissance-era frescoes depicting classical scenes, including the flight of Icarus and the burning of Troy.
