Le château en bref
The Château de Ceint-d'Eau, formerly known as Saint-Dau, overlooks the entrance to the hamlet of the same name, attached to Figeac (Lot). A former rural castle that became a country residence, it combines three 16th-century towers, an 18th-century main building and 20th-century additions inspired by the Italian Renaissance; from the 18th to the early 20th century, several phases of works improved its comfort for bourgeois families. The three towers and the main building have been listed as monuments historiques by order of 30 October 1925. Long owned by the Guary family, sold in 2002, the château had fallen into disrepair for lack of maintenance; acquired in 2018 by a new owner, it underwent a major restoration completed in 2021. It remains a privately owned property.
