Biron stands at the frontier between Périgord and Agenais, i.e. a highly strategic position. Its history is directly linked to the great Gontaut-Biron family, the holder of the castle for eight hundred years.
Marked throughout the XIIth to XVIIIth centuries by all sorts of vicissitudes, this monumental building offers a XIIth century donjon, a two-storey chapel, Renaissance appartments, impressive vaulted kitchens, etc.
