This stunning 1540 Renaissance mansion showcases Limousin's architectural heritage beautifully. The ornate period building itself is the main draw—a genuine masterpiece of 16th-century design worth visiting even before exploring the collections
“Built in 1540 by Jean II de Calvimont, Lord of Labenche, guardian of the seal and clerk to the King, this is a superb example of Toulouse Renaissance building.”
