Chateau de Bonaguil

The powerful Berenger de Roquefeuil (1448-1530), descended from the aristocracy of Quercy and Rouergue, devoted several years of his life to making of Bonaguil the fortress of legend that it is today. It equips the castle with an enormous barbican, with six towers, one of which is among the most beautiful in the country, with seven drawbridges, a baffle, a casemate, gunboats and a pierced sparrow tower Of loopholes for a more incisive defense of the ditches. In spite of a paradoxical situation between Quercy and Perigord, far from the main thoroughfares, magnificent architecture, gigantic proportions (the quarter in plan of the city of Carcassonne) and a state of conservation so remarkable led VIOLLET-LE-DUC, Lawrence d'ARABIE or André BRETON to quote Bonaguil as an example! The commune of Fumel bought Bonaguil in 1860 and classified it under the title of Historic Monuments in 1862.

Amazing place. Just a shame they insisted on masks being worn at ALL times, even when outside clambering up flights of steps which meant glasses misted up all the time! Bit OTT even in these worrying times as there weren't many visitors so social distancing was easy. But a really fascinating place to explore. A fabulous example of castle architecture with many unique features. Highly recommended even if you have to wear a mask!

Musee du Foie Gras

Reviewed By Bleupasse

This is a fabulous place from many points of view: the museum and film give an excellent overview of the duck, goose and foie gras industry in the Perigord, while the tasting session gives a very good appreciation of the contrast between what the different sorts of foie gras are. Then you are ready to choose from the wonderful goods in the shop! We cooked a fiest from what we bought there including pudding. It is also possible to have a meal, which I would love to do next time. Staff are lovely and prices decent. Superb!
