Château de Besne stands in Saint-Péreuse (Nièvre), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, fourth quarter of the 18th century, first quarter of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Set on a hilltop above the Bazois countryside, the Château de Besne has overlooked Saint-Péreuse since the 15th century. Two wings meeting at a right angle, framed by four towers, give it a medieval silhouette despite alterations made in the early 19th century. Inside, a monumental period fireplace and a Restoration-style drawing room reflect the building's layered past.
