En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château de la Malartrie stands in Vézac, in the Périgord Noir, between a cliff and the Dordogne river, facing the Château de Beynac. In the 12th century, the site was originally home to a leper hospital. At the end of the 19th century, Count Charles de Beaupoil de Saint-Aulaire, French ambassador to England, had the present château built in a Neo-Renaissance style inspired by the architecture of Viollet-le-Duc, with a rectangular keep, a round tower, a chapel, crenellated ramparts, arrow slits, machicolations and a covered gallery. Still owned by the family, the building has been fully renovated to preserve its heritage character while incorporating modern amenities. The estate, covering about two hectares, includes belvedere gardens, a rose garden and century-old trees. The château is not open to visitors but can be rented by the week for private stays.
