Saint-Emilion, a museum under the sky
Not far from Bordeaux, between Libourne and Castillon-la-Bataille, Saint-Emilion stands, a museum under the sky. Built as an amphitheatre, it astonishes and fascinates. With its troglodyte tradition, its striking buildings and underground galleries, its vestiges of the great Romanesque era, its steep alleyways, its ochre and luminous stones extracted from the local limestone quarries, its tiled roofs, Saint-Emilion is listed on the World Heritage List of Unesco. First wine growing region thus listed, Saint-Émilion is an exceptional site, combining extremely beautiful monuments, which have remained largely intact through the centuries, with a very beautiful and unchanging landscape

Château of the month
Le château de Guilguiffin
At the end of Brittany, a few miles away from Quimper, on the site of Guilguiffin, a fortress had been erected during the 11th century. A few centuries later, with the agreement of king Louis XV, the landlord had it erased. After having the stones cut, he had them used to build up a new mansion, dedicated to hunting.
The present castle of Guilguiffin thus dates back to the 18th. At the entrance of this imposing estate, the drawing and setting of the stone pillars reflect the architect's oriental inspiration.
The castle and its 75 hectares park are listed and today completely restored. You will appreciate strolling along the alleys, lined with rhododendrons, daffodils and precious tree species.
A beautiful architecture, a haven of peace and charm.
