About Château de Pompadour
In the Corrèze, the Château de Pompadour is famous above all for the name it gave to Madame de Pompadour, the celebrated favourite of Louis XV, to whom the king granted the estate and its marquisate. This handsome medieval and later château, with its round towers, rises above one of the most famous stud farms in France, the Haras de Pompadour, a national breeding centre for horses, especially the Anglo-Arabian. The combination of a fine château and its magnificent stables, paddocks and racecourse makes Pompadour a paradise for lovers of horses and heritage. Elegant, historic and forever linked to Madame de Pompadour and to the world of horses, the Château de Pompadour offers a delightful visit combining fine architecture, a famous name and the noble tradition of horse-breeding, a distinctive heritage stop in the green countryside of the Corrèze.
