Castle where you can discover the life of yesteryear with objects from the cellar to the attic, animations and theatrical night visits on site

In this fairy tale castle, inhabited for 600 years by the same family, Bernadette and Xavier, the owners, have, for the 50th anniversary of the opening of the castle to the public, plunged into the past and the memories. From closets, drawers, old trunks, attics, they have unearthed portraits, photos, everyday objects, old games... to reconstruct the daily life of this ancestral castle. This is how they invite you to discover the life of the past, the living rooms with antique furniture that have not changed place for ages, the chapel, the private apartments of the Marquise with anterooms, boudoirs, bedrooms and even a fully equipped toilet... From the cellar to the attic, we discover how the Perigordian nobility lived under the Ancien Régime and beyond, until the appearance of the automobile in the early 20th century. You will also marvel at the interpretation space of the mythological cabinet, a 17th century work of art classified as a historical monument, but also in Artemisia's room, an invitation to the wonderful world. And let's not forget the White Lady, whose legend has made Puymartin famous. The staging of all the parts of the castle will please all ages, everyone will find a quantity of historical information of great quality. Fun activities are offered on certain dates (see the castle's website) and theatrical night visits on the theme of "An evening at the Marquise's house", on Tuesday evenings in season.

Visite nocturne décevante, RIEN A VOIR
Impossible de visiter l'intérieur du château lors des nocturnes : UNE ABERRATION et les quelques animations ne justifient pas un prix d'entrée de 10 €.

Un très joli château réputé notamment pour sa dame blanche. Si vous croyez aux fantômes laissez vous tenter par cette visite. Et si vous n'y croyez pas, le chateau offre bien assez de merveilles à découvrir pour que chacun y trouve son compte

Laissez vous tenter par la légende de la Dame Blanche qui hanterait ce beau château. Très bien entretenu et meublé. La visite guidée rendue très intéressante par le guide. A voir

Le château de Puymartin possède une superbe cabinet de mythologie, visible par le public lorsque le nombre de visiteurs est réduit. Magnifiquement restauré et meublé, son guide passionné et passionnant nous a fait revivre l'histoire de la famille et de la région, sans oublier la visite du cachot où fut enfermée "la dame blanche", qui hanterait toujours les lieux...
Vaut le détour.
