En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château de la Roche Pontissac, in Saint-Front-d'Alemps in the Dordogne, is mentioned as early as 1458 under the name "Rupe de Pontissac". A former fief of the Faure family, it passed to the Lafont du Cluzeau and Neuilher-Nogueira families and then to M. Esclafer de la Rode. Its oldest part dates back to the 16th century and is complemented by a residence from the late 17th or the 18th century, with five bays and a square tower, extended by a gallery with Gothic-inspired pointed arches. Listed as a historic monument (inscrit au titre des monuments historiques) in 1987 and restored, it retains farm outbuildings and a domed dovecote in its park. Private property.
