CASTLES OF DORDOGNE

Mighty buildings that have stood up to invaders and centuries

An episode from the series CASTLES OF YESTERDAY AND TODAY

Synopsis

In the South-West of France, the Dordogne River crosses a territory where limestone cliffs rub shoulders with medieval villages.

Be there fortresses or luxurious Renaissance residences, the castles that border the river are firmly anchored in the landscape and have welcomed knights, humanists, and even music-hall stars.
