Editorial reading
The record follows Bridoire from a Roman oppidum guarding a river crossing through the Hundred Years’ War, the Protestant capture of 1560, Monluc’s destruction of 1568, the rebuilding under Henri IV and the dismantling ordered by the duc d’Épernon in 1649; the Père de Foucauld later lived here. The château with its gatehouse, walls, ditches, well and timber dovecote on nine stone piles was classified in 1992. The 2013 listing adds the unclassified parts of the château with its terrace, the remains of the former park and garden, the adjoining outbuildings and the walks known as the promenades de la Marquise on the two streams, across three communes.
