Château de la Roche-Gençay

Dominating the Belle Valley , this castle, whose origins date back to the 15th, 17th and 18th centuries, houses the only Museum of the Order of Malta in France. Its imposing silhouette is distinguished by two vast round towers framing an elegant façade adorned with flamboyant windows.

At its base, a formal French garden extends the refinement of the setting. The 16th-century Gothic chapel houses a remarkable stained-glass window , which won an award at the 1880 Universal Exhibition — a rare testament to the site's artistic and spiritual excellence.
