Château de Cambiac

The Château de Cambiac is a 15th-century castle in the commune of Cambiac in the Haute-Garonne département of France.[1]

Cambiac castle, Haute-Garonne, France

Originally a vast 15th century residence, it was probably constructed on the foundations of an earlier structure.[1] It was given to the sieur Milhau, constable of Montauban, by Marguerite de Navarre.[2]

At the end of the 19th century, massive restoration works gave the castle an extra floor and a pavilion. A Louis XII style was incorporated both inside and out.[1]

Privately owned, it has been listed since 2001 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.[1]
