July 17, 2025, Château Saint Martial

Château Saint-Martial de Jarnac is an elegant neo-Renaissance-style residence, built between 1882 and 1884 for Maurice Laporte-Bisquit, a cognac merchant and mayor of Jarnac. Its main façade is organized around two polygonal towers and a central H-shaped plan; the facades are decorated with ceramic panels, a tribute to the founding family. The château boasts a majestic stone staircase with a wrought iron railing, large reception rooms adorned with woodwork and gilded stucco, and a landscaped park. The building served as a hospital for wounded soldiers during the First World War and later became a home for art collections. Listed as a historic monument in 2014, the château now houses guest rooms and remains a testament to the prestige of cognac houses during the Belle Époque.

The Château des Chabannes in Jarnac was built at the end of the 19th century for Baptiste Vert, then a cognac company manager. It is distinguished by its vast terrace offering a panoramic view of the Charente River and a garden featuring a pond and a rockery pierced by grottoes. The château's architecture, composed of a central building, two rectangular wings, and pavilions with round towers, reflects the tastes of the time and the importance of the local cognac houses. The architectural details are particularly elaborate: stone balustrades, a south-facing gallery, sculpted friezes, and a prominent winter garden that accentuates the refinement of the ensemble. This residence, surrounded by a park sloping down to the river, bears witness to the prestige of the region's cognac merchants during the Belle Époque.

A street overlooking the Charente River, named "Le Quai." Very clear thanks to its limestone paving, it features a boat ramp and a staircase creating a beach on this quiet street.

Sheltered washhouse flush with the Charente, near the church of St-Denis de Vars, but offset from the Rouillac road.

The parish church of Notre-Dame is Romanesque and dates from the 12th century. It has a Romanesque bell tower with two floors of arched bays and a conical spire. A dome is at the crossing and the capitals are decorated with sculptures. On the gable of the façade, bas-reliefs depict Christ between evangelical symbols. Its façade was damaged during the Revolution, and heavily restored in the 19th century10. It was classified as a historic monument on July 12, 1886 https://www.angouleme-tourisme.com/patrimoine-culturel/eglise-notre-dame-de-trois-palis/ A little history of the town of Trois Palis by following this link: http://trois-palis.fr/histoire-et-patrimoine/

Old towpath that runs along the Charente River for nearly 20 km. A pleasant, easy route, but very popular on sunny days with hikers and cyclists.
