Château de Goudourville (Tarn et Garonne)
The site of a former monastery, the château dates from the 12th, 13th and 17th centuries. In the 15th century, the fortified château was transformed into a more comfortable Renaissance residence with an impressive spiral staircase in stone, an architectural jewel with an impressive 100 steps. In 1587, Henri IV stayed there. The château organizes a variety of cultural activities and receptions. The current owners continue their 20-year quest to fully restore the site and give it new life and purpose.
