The Château d'Ozenay stands beside the Natouze stream near Tournus, in Saône-et-Loire. Built from the late 15th century by the Chacipol family and later altered during the 16th and 17th centuries, it combines square towers, a round tower and a Renaissance spiral staircase around a stone lodge roofed with limestone slabs. The estate still has a freestanding dovecote, a formal garden crossed by the canalised stream, and a well-preserved old wine press. The property has remained in the same family for four centuries.
