Donzenac, medieval town
DONZENAC
Clinging to a hillside for the upper town, perched on a peak overlooking the Maumont for the castle district, Donzenac, a large once fortified village, still retains its medieval appearance with its winding streets which all lead back to the church district.
Barony of the lords of Comborn, the Malemorts and the viscounts of Turenne, Donzenac has some illustrious lords such as the Duke of Berry and Catherine de Medici.
Along the alleys and porches, you will discover the remains of 3 fascinating eras: Middle Ages, Renaissance and XNUMXth century.
