A Castle With a View


With six towers crowned by machicolations and topped with pepperpot roofs, Chateau of Val is perched on the reservoir lake of the Bort-les-Orgues dam in Upper Auvergne.
Built by Guillot d'Estaing in the 15th century on the foundations of a very old fortress,this castle has been a proud possession of Bort-Les-Orgues, Cantal, since 1953. It's history encapsulated in stone and water.
