À la table des châteaux

History of castles allows us to taste, in small bites, plenty of dishes through the detailed examples addressed in this book. But castles also evoke an abundance of expected excesses: indigestion, poisoning, drunkenness, debauchery… An image far removed from the studied and distinctive frugality of the 19th and 20th-century lords, but which contemporary cinema broadcasts with gargantuan scenes ending in bloodshed. Between reality and fiction, take part in this feast for the ears and the eyes, an unmissable event for archaeology and history in the Périgord since more than twenty years.
