Château de Sauveterre, Medieval fortress in Sauveterre, France.

The castle extends on a spur site within a bend of the Thoré River, rising twenty meters above with two round corner towers on its southern facade.

The structure was built before 1289 during King Edward I's reign to protect northern Agenais from threats originating in Périgord and Quercy regions.

The dining room features early 19th-century decorations with painted faux marble effects and grimacing heads adorning the walls.

The castle grounds measure 110 meters from east to west and 50 meters in width, with a dovecote standing fifteen meters in front of the main residence.

The interior layout includes three reception rooms in sequence: the small salon, grand salon, and dining room, all preserving their 19th-century design elements.
