Laujac is an ancient place name which most certainly finds its origins in the conquest of Gaul. In the Gironde area, names ending in \u00ab\u00a0ac\u00a0\u00bb usually serve to identify a Gallo-Roman villa.<\/p>\n
While digging the foundations for the vatting room during the nineteenth century, the workers found mosaic fragments, polished axes, flint work and pottery.<\/p>\n

He had the Chateau built in the neoclassical style in 1810.<\/p>\n
Later, in 1824, the estate was ceded to the Cabarrus family, shipowner-brokers in Bordeaux and cousins of Notre Dame de Thermidor. They, in turn, sold it to the Cruse family in 1852.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
