Château du Mas de Montet

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château du Mas de Montet, in Petit-Bersac in the Périgord Vert, takes its name from the Latin “mansio” (a Gallo-Roman roadside staging post). Renaissance in style with elements from the 15th–16th centuries, it was enlarged in the 18th century by the Marquis de Nattes. President François Mitterrand, whose maternal grandfather owned a neighbouring property at Touvent, stayed there frequently from 1992 onwards. Closed for renovation from 1997 to 2005, the château now operates as a luxury hotel and restaurant.
