• A Duke’s château.
The château of Cadillac represents the unrivalled power of Jean Louis
de Nogaret de La Valette, the first Duke of Épernon (1554-1642). This
cadet from Gascony became one of the favourites of Henri III and
acquired great honours and riches before he died in disgrace in the
reign of Louis XIII.
