Monbazillac: Vacation Apartments and Holiday Homes
The Château de Monbazillac is considered a typical Gascon manor house dating from the late 15th century; it features four corner towers and moats. From there, visitors can enjoy panoramic views over the Dordogne Valley and Bergerac. The visitor tour comprises three stops: an immersive presentation about Monbazillac wines, historical and artistic exhibitions in the château, and a tasting.
Those wishing to combine the château, wine, and local history in Monbazillac may want to rent a vacation apartment.
Culture and Local History
The Manoir de Fonvieille has been listed as a historic monument by decree dated June 24, 1948. The Église de Monbazillac was rebuilt after being destroyed several times, at the end of the reign of Louis XIV.
