Set on a rocky spur facing the Solutré rock, Berzé castle overlooks the Petite Grosne valley and the vineyards of the Mâconnais. This stronghold, dating back to the 10th century, still holds thirteen of its original towers and three defensive wall lines, later reshaped in the 19th century into a romantic residence. Visitors can walk through medieval rooms, two pre-Romanesque chapels and a well cut into the rock over thirty metres deep.
