[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 823902, member: 53455"] The L’Herm Castle, in the Périgord region of France, was built during the 16th century, it is therefore not Mediæval. However, and in spite of some elements and decorations in the Renaissance style, it retains a general appearance that is decidedly Mediæval, making it an exception for a time during which rich lords aspired to create much less austere–looking abodes... Today mostly a romantic ruin, it also has a somewhat troubled history: there were some murders, it seems, and there could still be a ghost... Not necessarily a place you want to hang around alone during a dark night —nor a not so dark one— but definitely a memorable sight to behold. It was listed on the preliminary list of Historic Landmarks in 1927 but had to wait almost a century until it made it to full Historic Landmark status in 2022.
