En un regard
Le château en bref
Condat Castle is located at Bouziès, in the Lot valley upstream from Cahors. A former noble stronghold first mentioned in 1287, it was held in 1504 together with the basse justice. Its history is that of a succession of owners: a merchant, Pierre Cornavi, in 1452, Antoine de Saint-Géry in 1469, the Balaguier family in the 17th century, then Pierre de Malleville in 1776. The building forms a compact group of three main blocks dominated by a tower, lit by croisées and demi-croisées windows. A straight-flight staircase around a central core serves all levels, above a partly vaulted basement. A circular dovecote roofed in slate completes the ensemble. The façades, roofs, staircase and dovecote have been listed as monuments historiques since 14 May 1987.
