The Donjon, Manor House and Garden of La Salle is closed for the winter. Reopening on Friday, March 26, 2027.
The Donjon, Manor House and Garden of La Salle, located in Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère in the Vézère Valley (Dordogne), is closed for the autumn and winter seasons. It will reopen on Friday, March 26, 2027, for the Easter weekend, with the same opening hours as in 2026.
Closed Until Spring
Throughout the closure period, the site is not open to visitors, whether individuals or groups. However, the team remains available to answer any questions at info@manoirsaintleon.com.
This winter break allows us to prepare for the 2027 season: maintaining the gardens, caring for the buildings, and putting the finishing touches on new attractions and experiences.
Thank You for a Wonderful 2026 Season
The 2026 season brought visitors of all ages together to explore the medieval heritage of Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère. Families followed Flammèche on his adventure trail, took part in the dragon’s treasure hunt, and enjoyed workshops in the gardens, including herbalism with Catherine and activities with Mélody in the manor house’s drawing room. The summer evenings featured two performances: Carmen on July 21 and Ruy Blas on July 24.
The entire team would like to warmly thank everyone who visited the keep, manor house, and gardens this year.
What Awaits You in 2027
The activities that have made the site so popular will return in 2027. A new puzzle-solving game will be introduced, particularly for visitors who are already familiar with Flammèche and are looking for a new reason to explore the keep and manor house while having fun. More surprises are in the works and will be revealed over the coming months.
During your visit, you can look forward to:
- the 12th-century keep and the 15th-century manor house;
- French- and English-inspired gardens, a medieval herb garden and a centuries-old cedar of Lebanon;
- the fantastical creatures exhibition;
- fun, interactive trails for the whole family;
- a dog-friendly welcome.
