The chateau is about 1.5k from our house on the wings of a dove, more like double that by car and foot (we parked about 500m from the entrance to the village due to crush of tourism). The fortress dates from the 10th century, ending its utilitarian days in the 17th century, when it was destroyed by order of Louis XIII. Now has a new life as un des plus beaux villages de France, attracting it claims 1,000,000 visitors a year.
