# Château de Bompré

Barberier, Allier, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château de Bompré stands in Barberier (Allier), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Standing on a ridge above the Sioule valley, Bompré castle keeps the profile of a 15th-century fortified house, marked by a round tower topped with a hexagonal lantern. Later alterations, especially in the 18th century, added lighter window openings without erasing its defensive outline. Inside, a vestibule lined with stone coffering leads to a chimneypiece painted with a scene inspired by a Florentine masterpiece, the work of a Swiss artist who lived on the estate in the mid-20th century.

**No visits on record.** No opening hours or ticketing found.
