The Sénéchaussée of Uzerche was created in 1557 by Henri II. Its facade, overlooking the Vézère river, features three towers representing the rights of high, medium and low justice. A municipal building since 1879, it served as a girls' school until 1924, and then as a police station. The de Chavailles family was responsible for the development of the seneschalsea from the 16th to 17th centuries.
