Chateau de Bournazel

Up early to get the bus into Cahors to the market. Back then out in the car. To visit Chateau Monument historique, garden remarkable. After 15 yrs of exemplary restoration, crowned by the Grand Tropee Dessault Histoire et Patrimoine. Considered the most beautiful Renaissance chateau- museum in the south of France. Privately owned by a French couple who live in it. Had a private tour of the public rooms in english. The owner had been collecting historic furniture and paintings, all from the 16th century, including a harpsichord from the same period and thought to be the only original one in existence. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed to take pics of the inside, but it was truly incredible. Blown away. Then we visited the garden and village. The village was only small but it had one Tartiere. We both had a tart, which was very tasty, but the big problem was the flies, which is a big problem when it is hot/ humid.Läs mer
