- 1453 – The Battle of Castillon, on 17 July, ends the Hundred Years' War with a French victory.

- 16th century – During the Wars of Religion, the Château de Picon, one of the two châteaux of Eynesse mentioned in the Middle Ages, is destroyed.

The listing gives neither the historical name nor the date of the building, and the sources consulted do not allow it to be identified with certainty among the châteaux of the commune. This page therefore presents the historical background of Eynesse and its surroundings, without attributing to the house a history that is not documented.
The village, a rural commune of about 580 inhabitants, lies on the southern slope of the Dordogne valley, with the river forming its northern boundary. In this landscape of vineyards and bastides, châteaux and fortified houses number in the dozens, which gives a night in a château its full meaning.
