Château de Rochechouart

Musée de France

Standing on a rocky promontory, this 13th- and 15th-century fortress was remodeled in the 17th and 18th centuries. The Renaissance courtyard features a gallery with arcades and twisted columns. Inside, two rooms house 16th-century frescoes. The first depicts hunting scenes, while the monumental second evokes the labors of Hercules.

Since 1985, the château has been home to the Haute-Vienne Museum of Contemporary Art.
