The French garden, water stair and park of Clauzuroux

Clauzuroux, one of the finest eighteenth-century Périgord manors, turns its façades to the Pude across a terrace with Louis XIV balusters; its garden and park, laid out with the house, its mill, its water stair and its dovecote were listed in 2002.

Redaktionelle Einordnung

The record describes a closed court with an early-seventeenth-century gate and two small round corner towers, farm buildings whose dormers are crowned with maces, and a house under a Mansart roof between two taller pavilions, with a roofed well. The layouts of the garden and the park are contemporary with the house. A mill that keeps its mechanism and a water stair, the record says, bear witness to the domain’s utilitarian and pleasure vocations. The château was listed in 1947; in 2002 the listing was extended to the garden, the park, the mill with its leat, the water stair, the dovecote and the dependencies, spread over three communes — the jardin à la française and the water stair lying on the Cherval side.

Empfehlung

A water stair beside a working mill: the same stream serves the miller and the garden.
