释义 |
The Château de Condat is a fortified former commandry of the Knights Hospitaller located in the commune of Condat-sur-Vézère in the Dordogne département of France. HistoryThe commandry was definitely founded in the 12th century, and restored around 1540.[1] The Château de Condat was the commandry for the Hospitallers who occupied the town from the 12th to the 18th centuries.[2] Known as Hospitalis de Condato and documented since 1239, it served the functions of fortification, tithe barn, residence, hostel for pilgrims and hospital for the sick.[3] It was the most important of the Hospitallers' commandries in Périgord. During the Wars of Religion, the Huguenot leader, captain Pouch, transformed the church into a fortress that was besieged and taken by the seigneur of Losse. Just as in the Wars of Religion, during the Fronde it changed hands several times.[4] After the Storming of the Bastille in 1789, the commandry was pillaged.[1] DescriptionThe edifice is an oblong structure, attached to a square 14th century keep with a chemin de ronde supported on corbels. In the opposite corner, a 16th-century turret has been reduced in height. It is completed by a second building, with a square defensive tower. The former moats have been filled in. The roof is covered with slate from Brive.[1] The Château de Condat is privately owned. It has been listed since 1948 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.[1] See also
