Château de Beynac

Fortress and strategic stronghold of the ancient kingdom of Aquitaine. Frequented by the powerhouse 'It Girl' of the middle ages, Eleanor of Aquitaine ( Eleanor of Aquitaine was Duchess of Aquitaine from 1137 to 1204, Queen of France from 1137 to 1152 as the wife of King Louis VII, and later Queen of England as wife of Henry II ), Her son, Richard the Lion Heart also hung out here! Remarkable history and mighty impressive location with it's commanding views of the Dordogne valley - you can see an invading army several miles off!Okumaya devam et
