Castel of Beynac
An authentic castle of Périgord




Less than 20 km from the Moulin de la Beune
This authentic castle of the Middle Ages in Périgord dominates the Dordogne from the top of a vertiginous cliff for more than 9 centuries!
From the top of this ciradel, contemplate 5 centuries of the history of France, and follow the footsteps of Richard Lionheart, Aliénor of Aquitaine, Simon de Montfort and the Hundred Years War.
From the defensive rigor of its 12th century dungeon to the Renaissance staircase through the impressive hall of the 15th century Baronnies du Périgord, the cuisine of the 13th century and its exceptional barbican, its exceptional state of conservation offers an unforgettable journey in the middle of the Middle Ages.
Between heaven and earth, from the top of the keep of XIVe, the 152 meters of steep on the Dordogne will offer you an unforgettable sight on the splendid valley of 5 castles.
To visit Beynac is to experience a total immersion dive in the heart of history.
