Castle view like almost 800 years back in history - Chateau de Castelnaud (Castelnaud-la-Chapelle/FR)
These French castles are still dominating the surrounding valleys and see every single move at the Dordogne river. Just a little downstream the Dordogne river there's one of it's greatest rivals, Château de Beynac. Upstream the's Château de Montfort. They, any many more castles like these, all took part in many medieval wars.
These castles must have been very impressive during the ancient middle ages but still are today. The beauty of these French castles, these fortresses and castle grounds of medieval times are huge, most of them restored with taste and respect to it's history. Nowadays our precious monuments of European history. The various views of these castles give a feeling of time travel in modern times, allmost unique proof of human medieval history.
