Chateau Et Jardins De Losse
About
The château and gardens of Losse are listed as Historical House and Site. You will find them on the D706 going down the valley 5Km from Montignac-Lascaux (Caves) towards Les Eyzies (National Prehistory Museum). The medieval fortress overlooks the Vézère river. In 1575 a Renaissance Hall was built within the stronghold. It is enclosed by curtain walls and surrounded by a deep ditch. Inside the fine décor and the exceptional period furnishings bear witness to the grand lifestyle of the Marquess of Jean II de Losse in the 16th century. The gardens within the walls or terraced over the river are in perfect harmony and offer a view over an unspoiltvirgilian countryside. https://youtu.be/15Cd6c9bX9I
