Show NavigationLa Dordogne from Marqueyssac
The Gardens of Marqueyssac are located in the town of Vézac, in the French area of Dordogne, in the region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. It is on the list of "jardins remarquables de France" (remarkable gardens in France). The park of Château de Marqueyssac is a private estate of twenty-two hectares built around an 18th century castle. Its facilities are typical of what was done in France under Napoleon III.
Built on a rocky spur 130 meters above the river, the park offers a view of the valley, castles and nearby villages, including Beynac-et-Cazenac, Fayrac, Castelnaud, La Roque-Gageac and Domme.
In 2011, it was the third most visited tourist site in the Dordogne with 190,000 visitors.
