The hanging gardens of Marqueyssac
Above the Dordogne at Vézac, the manor of Marqueyssac is best known for the clipped boxwood of its gardens on the rock; the record, however, protects only the house.

Aus der Quelle
Château de Marqueyssac is a château at Vézac, Dordogne, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The recorded building campaigns date from the 15th and 17th centuries.

Redaktionelle Einordnung
The Mérimée record is about the building: a manor-château with outbuildings, a main block with two pavilions in return, a round stair tower on the west face and substantial ramparts, listed for its façades and roofs in 1948. It does not describe the gardens. The rock gardens with their thousands of clipped box, photographed here, are documented by the image and by the site’s own presence in the Base Mérimée as a garden, not by the record’s text.
Empfehlung
Whatever the record omits, the box on the cliff is the reason people climb to Marqueyssac.
