Saint-Denis Church, Vars
Highlight • Other
Probably in connection with the building of the castle to the north, the very sober facade of the church has been altered: one can still distinguish traces of the old bell tower with two arches, in the upper part. The bell tower built on the south arm of the transept is therefore posterior. The apse has the particularity of having been raised in order to fortify it and to fit various defensive elements (heated room, bay windows with cushions, access to gateways, etc.)

Keep of Montignac-Charente
Highlight • Castle
It is built on a terrace overlooking the Charente.
Of the enclosure, there remains the gate with portcullis with two round towers at the top of an escarpment, the western part of the enclosure and a round tower.
