Hautefort

Highlight • Other

The village and the Château de Hautefort are worth a little detour on the Flow Vélo route. At lunchtime, you can buy delicious cooked dishes at the butcher's shop "Levy" on rue Bertrand de Born and enjoy them in a small shaded square a few steps away on rue Bertrand Artigue.

Muratel railway tunnel

Highlight • Other

The Muratel railway tunnel was dug between 1893 and 1895. It allowed the crossing of a meander of the Elle River on the Nontron-Sarlat railway line, crossing the Muratel hill. 215 meters long, it features a limestone vault with refuge niches for safety. The line operated until 1939, then the tunnel was decommissioned in 1941, its roadway even being paved for temporary road access during construction. Today, it is an unused historical railway remnant.
Good luck if you dare venture there!

View of Hautefort castle

Highlight • Other

Hautefort Castle was built between the late 16th and late 17th centuries on the remains of an ancient medieval fortress. Its architecture is clearly reminiscent of the Loire Valley châteaux, with a classical style combining elegance and defensive elements, including crenellated towers and a large quadrangle. The Marquis Jacques-François de Hautefort, a great builder, carried out a significant transformation to create a refined residence with galleries, a chapel, and rich interior decoration. The castle is surrounded by magnificent French gardens designed in the 19th century by the Count of Choulot. It survived the Revolution thanks to the defense of the inhabitants and was restored after a fire in the 20th century.

Very pleasant visit to this very well maintained castle. The gardens are absolutely stunning. It's like being in a cartoon at times, the paths and the flowerbeds are cut with a line. Very beautiful surroundings, very green landscapes. We feel good in this place.
