History edit
Built in the 12th century on the left bank of the Vézère, the Château de la Fleunie faces the Château de la Petite Filolie on the other bank.[1]
The Château was used by the Knights Hospitallers and the Sovereign Military Order of Malta as a commandery house. After a restoration in 1990, it is today a luxury hotel-restaurant, known as Château La Fleunie.[1]
