Château des Anglais (Autoire)
The Château des Anglais is a castle in the "commune" of Autoire in the Lot "département" of France. The castle extends under a rocky cliff, partially overhanging, which limits its area. The only remains are a roofless "corps de logis" with a turret. The castle continues to the east with a further "corps de logis" and turret. Together, they formed a sort of narrow, extended keep, stuck to the rock which forms its lower wall. The keep was surrounded by a fortified village, slightly lower, comprising 22 square houses. A wall made of large blocks of  stone encircled the village. Apart from this enclosure, which could be older, the village and the castle show evidence of 11th and 12th centuries origins. Parts of the site are privately owned and parts are the property of the "commune". It has been listed since 1925 as a "monument historique" by the French Ministry of Culture.
