Culture

The Château d’Estaing is a listed historic monument whose construction began in the 11th century. The Église Saint-Fleuret houses a protected reliquary monstrance of Saint Fleuret. At the same time, it was built at the end of the 15th century on the foundations of an earlier priory, already mentioned in 1087.

Guided tours of the Château d’Estaing include access to the tower, two chapels, the family salon and the top of the tower. Self-guided visits are also possible, providing access to the upper courtyard, the terrace, restored interiors and the exhibition "Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, un homme au service de la France et de l'Europe".

Those who have chosen Estaing as their travel destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment there.
