Château de Bort, Historic castle in Rilhac-Rancon and Saint-Priest-Taurion, France.

The Château de Bort features two granite wings forming an L-shape, with two round towers decorated with machicolations at their summits.

First mentioned in the 15th century, the Bort estate underwent substantial modifications in the 19th century, adding neo-gothic elements including towers and pavilions.

The castle chapel preserves 15th-century wall paintings in its nave, representing the medieval artistic heritage of the region.

The estate includes a model farm with agricultural facilities, workshops, an orangery, and a walled vegetable garden.

Five separate guard houses mark the entrances to the estate, demonstrating a sophisticated surveillance system typical of large 19th-century properties.
