France // The Limousin, Dordogne and the Lot

Château de Biron

Explore The Limousin, Dordogne and the Lot

The vast Château de Biron was begun in the eleventh century and added to piecemeal afterwards. You can take a guided tour (in French only), but it’s better to use the audio-guide and wander at will around the rooms and the grassy courtyard, where there is a restored Renaissance chapel and guardhouse with tremendous views over the roofs of the feudal village below.
