The Cayla Castle-Museum, also known as the Eugénie and Maurice de Guérin Museum, is situated in the quaint town of Andillac, in the Tarn department of France. This location offers visitors a chance to explore the rich history and culture of the region while enjoying the scenic beauty of the French countryside.
The site of the Cayla Castle-Museum has a rich history dating back to the 15th century when it was originally a hunting lodge. Over the centuries, it underwent various modifications and was transformed into a manor house in the first half of the 19th century. This transformation reflects the architectural evolution of the period and offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of the era.
The Cayla Castle-Museum was once the property of the family of Maurice de Guérin, a renowned prose writer and poet. The building has since been transformed into a museum dedicated to Maurice de Guérin and his sister Eugénie de Guérin, as well as to literature and painting. The museum regularly hosts temporary exhibitions, providing visitors with a diverse and ever-changing experience.
