# Château d'Alleuze

Alleuze, Cantal, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château d'Alleuze stands in Alleuze (Cantal), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century, 15th century). Admission is free. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Alleuze valley, this ruined stronghold still shows its square plan flanked by four round towers, characteristic of 14th-century fortresses. Never a royal residence, it functioned as a forward post guarding Saint-Flour and housed only a garrison. Destroyed and rebuilt in the early 15th century, it has kept its ruined appearance, deliberately left unrestored. Its isolated outline, overlooking the Grandval reservoir, has appeared as a backdrop in several films, including La Grande Vadrouille.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
