Château de Château-l'Évêque, Medieval castle in Château-l'Évêque, France.

The castle consists of multiple parallel buildings oriented east to west, with corner towers and spiral staircases decorated with carved doorways.

Construction began in the 14th century under Bishop Adhémar de Neuville and served as the summer residence for the bishops of Périgueux until the French Revolution.

The castle rooms display a collection of paintings from the 17th to 19th centuries, accompanied by antique furniture and collectible items.

Guided tours operate at 1:30 PM, 3 PM, 4:30 PM, and 6 PM, with admission costing 10 euros per person, free for children under 10 years old.

The castle features three sundials on its Renaissance facade that continue to indicate time with precision.
