Vieillecour

Saint-Pierre-De-Frugie, France

Vieillecour in Saint-Pierre-De-Frugie, France, is a historic château with origins dating back to around the year 1000 and largely constructed by 1120.

Initially built as a fortress, it was designed to dominate the surrounding valley with its battlements, square and round towers, and strategic location. The château has a rich military history, including hosting King Richard the Lionheart shortly before his death in 1199 and serving as a stronghold during the Hundred Years War. Over centuries, it transformed from a defensive fortress to a pleasure castle with major renovations in the 15th and 17th centuries.

The estate, listed as a historic monument since 1946, remains a private property offering hospitality and a deep connection to French and English historical heritage.
