Condat
France, France
Condat, located in the Dordogne département of France, is a village known for the Château de Condat, a fortified former commandry of the Knights Hospitaller founded in the 12th century and restored around 1540.
The castle served multiple functions including fortification, residence, hospital for pilgrims, and tithe barn. It played a role in regional conflicts during the Wars of Religion and the Fronde, changing hands several times and suffering pillaging after the French Revolution. Today, the château remains a prominent historic monument with a 14th-century keep and 16th-century towers, representing the area’s medieval and religious heritage.
The village itself has layers of history extending back to Gaulois, Roman, and Templar times, with notable sites including the fortified church of Notre-Dame and Saint-Jean-Baptiste.
