CHÂTEAU DES MILANDES
15th century castle where Josephine Baker and her family lived, with a chapel, formal gardens and a bird of prey show
Built in the late 15th century by the lord of Château de Castelnaud, Château des Milandes is famous for having been the home of Josephine Baker. The visit is designed as a journey into the world of this great artist. Owner Angélique de Saint-Exupéry is constantly improving the buildings, tours and events. The grounds have been awarded the "Remarkable Garden" label. Since January 2024, an escape game plunges you into the life of its illustrious former owner.

Les 10 euros du billet d'entrée permettent de visiter les jardins, le château-musée, de visionner un documentaire sur la vie de Joséphine Baker (à voir dans la boutique) et d'assister à un spectacle de rapaces.
Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas ou peu de choses sur Joséphine Baker, le musée est très intéressant et instructif. La visite se fait assez facilement et rapidement, et permet de bien se représenter le personnage.
Grand parking gratuit.
