The name “Grand Barrail” was that of an old charterhouse of Gironde, and the castle was built on the latter’s ruins, under the initiative of Mr. René Bouchard, malter and brewer, for his mistress Mrs. Godeau. The construction site was entrusted to the architect Louis- Marie Cordonnier, famous for having been the architect of the Palais de la Haye, completed in 1906 and for having participated in the reconstruction of the Sainte-Thérése de Lisieux Basilic. Mr. René Bouchard, who resided for some years in Saudi Arabia, had wished to regain that particular atmosphere in the castle’s decoration.Attached to the vine yard of the Château Lamarzelle Figeac for a long time, the Grand Barrail became a Château Hotel in 1993.In 2008, the Hotel Grand Barrail decided to give a new life to this prestigious establishment and have undertaken heavy renovation and embellishment works.
