Chateau de Jumilhac
The Chateau de Jumilhac, 20km north-east of Thiviers at the northern edge of the Dordogne department, is best known for its elaborate, 'sleeping-beauty' style rooves and ornate turrets.
Although it dates originally from the 13th century, Jumilhac was heavily modified during the 16th-17th centuries, when it was re-invented as a luxurious renaissance dwelling. It was also at this time that the famous rooves were added, along with the external walls and some magnificent entertainment rooms.
There are several very interesting rooms in the chateau, with grand fireplaces, staircase and parquetry floors to admire in particular.
When all the sumptuousness becomes too much you can visit the dungeon!
The chateau at Jumilhac also has some fine gardens in the French style - lots of short grass and small box hedges.
